[Bug] Playing stream audio from the editor almost always starts from beginning.

Whenever I am creating a movie clip with an audio layer set to "stream" I usually click certain points of the movie and hit enter to see and hear it. In Flash CC however, it seems about 95% of the time no matter what frame I am on when I hit enter the audio starts from the beginning and is not in sync. There have been a few cases in which the audio started at right frame but I haven't yet been able to isolate the process. Audio works great in the exported SWF, this issue is just just with the editor.

What OS?

Can you try leaving the timeline head at the desired position for a few seconds (or something extreme like 10 seconds) and then hit enter, see if you can reproduce getting the correct audio every time? I experienced that on Windows a few times. I've since added a sound blaster (for other reasons) and noticed it's a lot less if almost never. I chalked it up to being similar to video where the audio needs a few seconds to render the correct audio up to that position due to the way lossy compression works. I really don't know if it's uncompressed under the hood in Flash CC.

Windows 7 x64. I waited a good 10-15 seconds and it still started from the beginning. Editor audio playback is flawless in CS6.
