Audio Tracks changing when zoomed in and out of the timeline?

After importing my video, the audio waves are visually out of sync when zoomed out, I have to zoom into the timeline for it to fix itself but that makes cutting up the audio very difficult. 

 

My 1st audio track is my mic then my 2nd is system sounds

 

Zoomed OUT of the timeline it goes out of sync and then zoomed in, it's resynced 

 

 

Zooming in and out of my timeline, watch the audio wavelengths

Can you share a bit more detail about the audio?

• Where did the audio come from?
• Are the mic and system audio separate files, or part of the same file?
• What file format are you working with (for example MP4, WAV, or MP3)?


This will help narrow down whether this is a display issue in the Timeline or something related to how the audio was recorded and encoded.

I'm not sure I exactly see what you are doing.  I suspect use of either of the Sync Lock or Track Lock tools will help.
