Audio dropping out during timeline playback

Hi, I'm experiencing audio issues while playing back footage on the time line.  Just a simple assembly timeline with no effects or anything.  The sound consistently drops out during playback and doesn't return. This makes it very hard to get into any kind of flow while editing.  Any hints would be appreciated.

Make sure Default Input in the Audio Hardware in the Preferences is set to No Input.

Hi, what kind of System, CPU and Audio Device do you have?

It sounds like your system is not able to render the audio in time.

 

It can help if you increase the "I/O Buffer Size" (Mac) or "Latency" (Win) of your audio device in the Preferences->Audio Hardware pane.
