Hi all,
I've been having this problem for a while and have just noticed that if the audio in the quicktime uploaded is compressed, then dropbox transcodes it with acceptable sync. All of my other uploads had PCM audio as I'm presenting music against the picture so didn't want to compress in case they were downloaded on the other end.
Of course, the transcoding should be able to handle PCM.... But this was certainly a fix for me.
