Audio Delay

[allpurpbox]

The audio is universally delayed by a 1 to 2 seconds upon every boot. The only way to get the audio to sync is to suspend the computer and awake it. I have this issue with other Linux distros as well not just debain 10. Audio goes to my TV via the HDMI cable. The issue is present in all desktop environments with both the free and the propriety nvidia driver. No issues with audio syncing in Windows 7. Any ideas on the cause?

Hardware
ASUS MAXIMUS VI HERO Motherboard with Intel Z87 Chipset
ASUS GeForce GTX 780

I got two questions:
1. Do you use the internet speakers from the TV or is it in turn hooked to an amp or soundbar?
If so, you might want to pass the sound directly to your amp/soundbar.
2. Is your TV connected to the graphics card port or to an onboard port?
It might be interesting which drivers you use.
Best regards

I use the HDMI out on the nvidia gtx 780 graphics card, which goes to a Sony TV HDMI in and plays via the TV speakers.

Do you use the standard nouveau drivers for your 780 or the non-free nvidia drivers?

[allpurpbox]

I use the non-free nvidia drivers but the nouveau driver has the exact same issue. This would tend to make me think it is not a video driver issue. Wondering if there is a service I can restart or module I could load and unload or something to figrue out the exact cuase of the problem. I played around in the bios without much luck so far. When I wake the computer from suspend the audio is perfectly in sync everytime and is is out of sync upon rebooting everytime. It stays out of sync after booting until is do a sudo systemctl suspend and awake.

Thats basicly all I got.
You could try to kill pulseaudio and let the daemon respawn. I guess that won't help but it might.

kill:
pulseaudio -k (use repetitively until you get an error)

restart:
pulseaudio -D

I have killed pulseaudio with no effect pulseaudio.

Okay so turning TV off and on also results in perfectly synced audio. So suspending the computer and turning TV off/on results in correct audio video sync. Anybody know anything about the HDMI negotiation audio/vidoe sync process? Anybody know how to reestablish an HDMI connection in linux without suspending or turing off TV or how to delay or control it during boot perhaps or any other ideas?

Is there anything relevant in the systemd journal?

[allpurpbox]

No nothing stands out in the systemd journal, but without knowing exactly what to look for it is hard. I searched "error", "hdmi", "nvidia", "sound", "snd". I rebooted and confirmed audio was out of sync and then turned off monitor and turned it back on to get synced audio. The following are the only new additions to the systemd journal:
