NX500 no audio upon import to FCPX

Hey Guys,

I have just got a NX500 as a companion to my NX1. Working with NX1 footage, I import H265 footage straight from the card and it works great in Final Cut. However, the footage from the X500 imports without sound. It is not the "remove silent channels" setting in Final Cut, I have checked that and it does not make a difference.

When I play a clip straight from the card in quicktime player it also does not have sound. VLC plays the sound though.

It's weird because the NX1 does not give me any of these problems. Does the NX500 have a different audio compression? I tried different frame sizes and quality settings and it does not seem to make a difference.

Did any of you guys run into similar problems? So far the only workaround I have found is to recompress back to H265 in Handbrake.
