Hello again Norma, it is not a component issue, if you read last comment from Ron Brown 2, this sounds more logical. Looking forward for more news from him in a month.

After updating to Windows 11 on my 6 month old laptop, my audio files take 20 seconds to start or they do not start at all. This also causes a delay in videos starting whether the file is on my computer or a website. Has anyone else had this issue.

2022-04-02T22:52:28+00:00 Hello, it looks like it has been solved by Dell with latest main update (4 days ago), and adding optional firmware update. This last one must be find apart, in the lower menu, clic ADVANCED, and then down in the second menu case that say ADDITIONAL OPTIONS, you will find firmware update.
That´s all, its been 5 days now with no problems in Windows 11 in my lap top, with volume, video and audio lag / delay.
