Apple fitness plus audio sync issues

Almost every time I watch an apple fitness plus workout on my Apple TV (latest model), the audio goes out of sync after about 10 seconds. Restarting the workout once or twice usually resolves the issue, but it only affects Apple fitness plus streaming. All other streaming apps work fine. The audio is being routed through an original HomePod

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 15

Hi there, Dom,


It sounds like you're having an audio issue when AirPlaying audio from your Apple TV to your HomePod, but only with the Fitness+ app. Let's start some troubleshooting by going through the following steps. This will help us ensure you are set up for success, and isolate the issue further.


Try each of the steps below, one-at-a-time. Test between each step, stopping when the issue is resolved:


  1. Make sure that you have the latest software updates installed for all devices involved:
    1. AppleTV: Update your Apple TV - Apple Support
    2. HomePod: Update HomePod - Apple Support
    3. iPhone: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    4. Apple Watch: Update your Apple Watch - Apple Support
  2. Restart your HomePod, AppleTV, Apple Watch, and its companion iPhone.
