Totally Unreliable Audio in Nested Sequences

I have audio that is synced when I go inside the nest, but when I'm in the main sequence again it isn't in sync! I do this for a living and I spend 1/3 of my time troubleshooting this program because of weird stuff like this-and the answers get harder and harder to find.

Agree -- nested audio, especially in multitrack sequences, is super buggy.

same thing for me -- suddenly getting nested sequences where the audio kicks in only after 1 second, as if there was some cross-fade effect applied to the beginning of the audio - but there is nothing applied. When playing back the sequence in its own timeline -- no issues.
It only happens when nested

I'm also experiencing the same problem. I'm absolutely sick to death of spending literally thousands of pounds on Adobe 's products that simply don't do the job they are supposed to do. I've spent more time trying to fix and find work-arounds on client projects than i ever do actually doing anything creative.

It's embarrassing when clients ask "why is there some weird audio at the start of the clip, can't you just edit it out". They are getting fed up with hearing about software bugs and saying "maybe you should buy some better software".

Adobe you're costing me an absolute fortune, it's high time you started repaying loyal customers and compensating customers for such awful service.

I have these issues as well. This is really needs to be fixed.

Sometimes pressing play starts playing audio from a different part of the nested sequence before snapping to the correct place.

I also had to use the pen tool to create a manual audio fade in at the start of every nested clip for it to not pop-in or play random audio before the actual clip starts.

Soooo tired of this issue. I have so many multicam interviews that I can't work on effectively because of this BS.

YES! I've encountered this issue a lot as well. Nesting audio will often lead to out-of-sync exports. I can sometimes fix it by changing the sampling rate (if audio is 44.1khz with sequence at 48khz, or vice versa) but sometimes it doesn't help either way, and the only way to workaround is to do as you said and export the audio separately, then import it and re-sync. Quite a waste of time.
