Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pitivi

1. Add a video to the timeline
2. Add an audio clip to the timeline
3. Click and drag the audio clip horizontally to a desired point on the timeline

Expected behaviour: Audio clip should move to the exact location you
specified on the timeline.

Actual behaviour: Audio clip snaps to discrete positions along the
timeline (these positions are often several seconds apart).

Discussion and workaround: Snapping prohibits exact placement of audio
which causes problems for projects where synchronisation between audio
and video is important. As a workaround it is possible to place the
audio clip first (at the desired point on the timeline) and then add the
video last. However it is often necessary to line the audio up with the
video so the real workaround is more convoluted: (1) Add video, (2) find
point on timeline where you want audio to start, (3) remove video, (4)
move audio to desired location, (5) add video back to timeline, (6)
confirm that audio and video line up during playback, (7) repeat steps
3-6 as needed
