Roku express audio lag

Recently added a Roku Express (most basic model of Roku) and have noticed the audio trails the video only on Directv Stream live channels.  All other streaming services work fine.  Is there a known problem with the Roku express?

Not surprised with the low end device. Less powerful then the Ultra.

Had that issue a few years ago, at camp. There was lag of the audio, on Roku and DirecTV Stream box. Then our ISP increased our Internet speed from 100 MBPS to 300 MBPS, and the issue went away, on both units.

Also, most tv's have an audio/sound setting that will help you sync your audio

Don't get the cheapest device out there - there have been lots of posts regarding Roku or FireTV low-end devices that do not perform well (buffering, audio/video sync issues, etc.)
