Audio Waveforms are incorrect

Hi, I've been having trouble with my audio waveforms for the past hour, and it's an absolute nightmare to edit with this problem continuing, so I'd appreciate any help. I'd like to preface this question by clarifying that the audio in question was recorded with a Mac application called OBS, using a headset mic. I should also note that this particular application has the video and audio that corresponds with it already linked when imported. The audio waveforms show up incorrectly, which can mean things like audio playing when there is significant blank space in the waveform, audio not playing when the wave appears, audio looking like it does not match the waveform at all, etc. How can I fix this? I have already deleted and moved my media cache twice, and have made the audio and linked video offline and then online again. I have no idea what to do, and I'm growing frantic.
