I used bluetooth headphones before (Bose QC 35 II) and I did not notice a significant delay between video and audio.
yesterday I googled what I could do with that Amazon echo dot and I found out it does have bluetooth. I didn't open the new one, the 3rd generation 2018, maybe I'll give that to someone, but I did grab one that I had, Echo Dot (2nd Generation), turned on the BlueTooth and connected to my mac Mini (2012). I noticed the sound is better than from the internal speaker, but there is perhaps a 1/4-to-1/2 second delay. It's not obvious unless you pay attention the the lips. It bothers me.
I will try the headphones again to see if I notice the same thing. I am curious if it is normal to have a small delay, or this is something peculiar to the Dot, the Mini, or the combination of Dot and Mini.
Thanks for your thoughts.
P.S. the 4th generation also has 3.5 mm line IN and OUT. the previous generations have only OUT and i think the 3.5 mm was removed from the 5th (current) generation.
