Q: WAV Audio out of sync when exported to DVD

I am fairly experiended with FCPX as a basic video editor, however have only recently started using my own filmed clips.

 

I filmed just under an hour of footage at 1080p and used a Zoom H1 with lapel mic to record the audio (WAV file) as the speaking subject was some distance from me.

 

Imported video and audio as normal, all good, 100% and green.

 

Ctreated the project and imported the video first using the original setings for the recorded clip and then pulled the audio in too.  All good so far.

 

Edited th footage which needed only a snip and top and bottom then synced the audio and snipped that top and bottom too.

 

Played on screen perfect.

 

Exported as 1080p file for upload to customers ipad, perfect with no issues.

 

However, I shared the project to DVD indside FCPX which I use all the time with no issues for customers for VHS transfers.  Played the DVD and its out of sync.  It maitains the same all the way and doesnt drift further out.

 

Tried a diffeent DVD drive, same issue.

 

Any ideas?  I haev never had any issues with sharing to DVD in teh past with audio but in general its VHS trasnsfers and audio is atatched to clip.  I haev importeed music files to projects before and never had any isue with sharing to DVD either, so is it to do with the Zoom Wav file??
