Photo Booth takes picture before the flash

I've upgraded to Mac OS Tahoe and I was messing around with Photo Booth.

I tried taking a picture in a low-light room and, even if the flash works, the picture that got took comes out without flash, like if it took it before the flash appeared on the screen.


I've tried to restart but nothing changed, how can I solve this?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 26.0
