when apple will fix delay in homepod speaker with macbook?

HI angsocool,

Thanks for being part of Apple Support Communities. We'd understand that you're having issues with a delay in audio output when using your HomePod mini connected to your MacBook Pro. We'd like to help.

Do you notice this issue when you're using a specific app on your MacBook Pro to play audio through your HomePod mini? Have you tested to see if this is the only app that has that issue? Knowing this can help isolate the issue to a specific app or feature first then we can plan the best troubleshooting to help.

In the meantime, have you tried to reset your HomePod mini to see if that helps? Give that a try now and let us know how that goes:
