I can confirm that updating to the latest WSJT-X fixes the issue.
I had the some problem, and it was particular to the K3. I had no delay
with the KX2, for instance.

Hi Folks,
Wondering if someone on the list might be able to solve this one.
I’m using a K3 and while CW is my main passion, I do dabble in FT8
occasionally. I’ve noticed that the radio does not start
transmitting right at the start of the 15 second FT8 cycle. It will
start anywhere from 2 - 5 seconds into the cycle. I can’t help but
think that is not a good thing and could be the cause of an
occasional missed QSO. I DO make QSOs but this kinda bothers me. The
audio signals are delayed this amount of time, as is the red TX
light coming on - I am using VOX . Same thing happens when I press
the TUNE button - it takes anywhere from 2-5 seconds for the rig to
go into transmit mode.
I really doubt it is due to computer overload, as the only
applications running are WSJT-X, MacLoggerDX (my logging program),
and JT-Bridge - all other applications have been ended. Since this
happens when I press TUNE, that pretty much eliminates JT-Bridge and
MacLoggerDX as the cause. Some hardware and software specifics:
Mac mini, 32 GB RAM, 3GHz processor, 6 cores, Intel Core i5.
Mac OS Big Sur 11.5
WSJT-X 2.4.0
Audio Interface: Tascam US-125M external USB device
Values in the DT column are consistently about 0.1 - 0.4
Wasn’t sure if I should post this here or on the WSJT-X list, but I
thought I’d start here. Any ideas?
