Text to Speech Syncing Issue

Hi everyone,

Having an issue where TTS audio ends up out of sync after a slide is paused for a while (anywhere over about 10 seconds). Video, animations etc. will start again instantly but the TTS has about a 1 second delay which causes it to be out of sync with the rest of the slide. This happens on all slides regardless of what other objects are on the slide. If you pause and play quickly, the issue doesn't happen.

Has anyone experienced this and are there any fixes?

Thanks!
