Question

Answer 1

I've had this problem when watching HD on demand using HDMI from a cable box->receiver->tv. It could be something with your hardware, only trial and error of wires and different equipment could single it out.  A quick fix is to adjust the A/V sync delay on the receiver, you should be able to do it from the remote control. I changed mine by 20ms and couldn't notice the delay anymore.

Answer 2

How large is the delay and in which direction?  It takes some time  for sound to get to your position. on decent systems you can setup the delay to send the sound earlier as the image
