VLC out of sync (audio)

Hello, brand new installation of Arch + Gnome 3 (pulseaudio)

When I was using Mint, I hadn't any problem, same software, same videos.

My Setup is enough for videos (i7 2600+, ssd, 8gb ram and 570GTX using propietary drivers and I install vdpau, just installed).

I installed VLC 2.0.1, I checked the experimental GPU support, but even typical 150MB~ anime videos are out of sync. The sound came like 1-2 sec after.

Same videos on totem, no problem at all.

Pulseaudio problem? I used it on mint too and perfect.

I don't know what is totem using (the options are kinda simple), but I bet for pulseaudio too.

I tried a command I saw searching in google to disable pulseaudio in vlc:

$ pasuspender vlc -s alsa

No help.

I'm sure that I need some package or something.

Any idea?

Thanks.

I have the exact same problem. I have only tried it with 720p mkv files. But no matter what, audio is always delayed in vlc but plays perfectly using totem.

Re: VLC out of sync (audio)

I ended using KDE (no pulse) but I tried smplayer and seemed better than vlc and works perfectly.

Anyway, would be good to see a solution for this.
