Lock Screen appearing delay and Audio playback Delay on Mac

There is a lock screen appearing delay when I open the lid (sometimes it doesnt, sometimes only the wallpaper has a delay, sometimes the display goes black for a second, shows the clock, and then after a few seconds again shows the wallpaper), and audio wont play for a few seconds after unlocking mac even when a video is playing.


I tried restarting and every stuff possible. Still the same




MacBook Pro (M3, 2023)

have you tried clearing the cached files in the browsers and also in the user/library folders.


try clearing those and restart the device .


If the same issue persists then you need to check with the data in the device that may have any corrupted files because of that reason also it happens but for not sure .


In that case you need to Reinstall the OS and check whether your issue is solved or not ?


After erasing and reinstalling the device also if the issue is found again then you need to visit an Apple service provider for further screening.
