Videos: Audio begins before page and video are loaded

Recently, I am having a problem where the audio starts playing before the page loads and the video begins.

So, once the page loads I then need to go back to the beginning of the video so everything syncs up.

Very strange!

This problem began about 2-3 weeks ago.

Update your Flash Player Note: Windows users should download the ActiveX for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the ActiveX.

Flash Player Version: Version 28.0.0.137
