Ack! My audio does not align with my waveform

I am using RekordBox 6.7.5 on a i9 16GB MacBook Pro 16 runiing Ventura 13.5

I have a DDJ-FLX4, but this problem exists with or without the FLX4 hooked up

I load a super simple track, a 125 BPM bass drum and snare; boom-chick-boom-chick, etc.. the grid is aligned on the beats

when I play, the audio lags the waveform (and so also the beat grid) by about half a beat. When I try to punch a second track by listening to the audio it is always off by that same half a beat. 

It's not that i'm that bad at matching the 1 beat.. It's always the exact same half beat.. I know I'm not that bad (or that good to get it perfectly on the half beat every time, lol)

Any ideas why it's laggy?

Thanks,

- Michael

Also, for what it's worth if I pause the audio and use the job wheels to drag the waveform across the playhead, the audio seems to be aligned with the beat grid.

Guess what I learned today?

Don't mix with a bluetooth headset!!

on a hunch I tried my wired AKGs and the beats are fine.

Crisis averted.. nothing to see here
