Delay between button click and sound

Question

I do not quite understand why there is a delay between the button click and sound.

Following is my code

    button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.playBtn);

I think you should consider using SoundPool instead.

    SoundPool soundPool = new SoundPool(1, AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, 100);
    HashMap<Integer, Integer> soundPoolMap soundPoolMap = new HashMap<Integer, Integer>();
    soundPoolMap.put(soundID, soundPool.load(this, R.raw.your_sound, 1));

And then you can play the sound using:

soundPool.play(soundId, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0);
