  @Rickyngk
  which sound file are you trying to play?mp3,wav?
  You can load your sound file in the main.lua and then play whereever you want i think it will make a difference.
  And also if your sound file can be too much high quality. for example for a sound effect no need to use 512 kps mp3 just use low compression and no stero maybe 8 bit.
  Of course if you are not programming some dj box:D

  I used mp3 for background music & wav for sfx. I don't care background music (nobody knows if it's delayed ) ).
  About wav (sound sfx), I used 176kbps , pcm_s16le

  as far as i know mp3 sounds are streamed by gideros but wav sounds are stored in memory not streamed. So try to load your wav sounds in the main lua before game even started. Then just play them. And use wav in your sound effects.

  unfortunately, I've already loaded before playing. However it's still delay about 0.5s
  I'll do a double check

  hmm.. 0.5s is really big. Does the 0.5s delay always occur? Or does it increase when you try to play multiple sounds at the same time?
