Multiclips - audio not obeying my IN POINT when creating multiclip

Hello,

When I create mulitclips (2x camera & 1x audio mix) syncing with IN POINTS, the audio track will slip forward out of sync when I cut to it and completely seems to ignore the IN POINT I gave it.

Oddly, the audio track in the multiclip is 'longer' than it should be - should be same length as the video tracks when dropped on the timeline - I also know this is odd because when I drop the original raw audio clip (with same IN POINTS) under the multiclip to compare lengths, it lines up perfectly with the video tracks length wise.

The audio is 24bit 8 channel WAV with timecode embedded. Do I need to change sequence settings or anything to stop this happening?? (So far I have set audio in sequence settings to 24bit... Anything else I can do?)

I am running Final Cut 6.0.4

To get around this, I am mulitclipping just the two cameras and adding the audio track separately - however I was hoping to keep both audio and two video tracks self contained in mulitclip clips for work flow reasons.

Does anyone have any advice please?
Cheers,
Tom
