Are you on Windows or a Mac? Your ausio is recorded Dolby Digital 5.1 and Premiere uses the computer operating system to do the decode.

Please use the free MediaInfo and post a screenshot of the properties of your media in tree view:

Many users are having issues with VFR. If the file is variable frame rate, use Handbrake to convert to constant frame rate before importing into Premiere Pro:

Here is a tutorial:

Shutter Encoder may also be used to convert to Constant Frame Rate:

Try Preferences > Audio Hardware and set Input to None.

If that doesn'r work, try Sequence > Render audio.
