EOS R: Audio out of sync with video ?

Hi,
A question about video/audio sync on my EOS R.

I've noticed that the audio, recorded by either my Rode Pro mic, or by my Saramoinic wireless mics, are a bit out of sync with the video - when playing back the video that's straight out of the camera.
This can easily be fixed in post, but it annoys me actually quite a bit - because why is it doing that ...... ?
And no, I haven't tried to record sound using the inbuild mic, because that I would not even think about doing
Anybody have some input or even better a solution perhaps ?

More details for diagnosis would help here. How many milliseconds is the sound out with your Røde mic, is it the same number with your Saramoinic mics? A quick clip with the internal mic could show up any delay due to the input circuitry.

Hi Sittatunga,
As far as I can it is no more than 500 miliseconds delay - so I basically have to drag the audio track ahead of the video track.
Now, I tried a small recording with the onboard mic as well - and thats exactly the same.
