just wanted to give an update on this (for me) long persistent issue, where audio glitches are randomly appearing when using compound clips (the compound as an audio source). To describe it, it's "choppy". small portions of audio repeating one or 2 times, or silent portions when it should not be silence, etc. It is still happening now and then. I'm currently on 18.6, but i also found this in 19beta, on a mac studio ultra m1, and m2. The hard part is that i have no idea how to reproduce it, but in my long-term experience, i found it mostly happening in longer timelines (1hour plus).
The solution for now is to flatten the compound clips, but this is still a workaround, not ideal. I'm using 48k 24bit wave files in this case. It also sometimes works to just add a cut to the audio file inside the compound clip.
Especially with longer timelines, this can really break your workflow. It's that i know about it, and can anticipate, but it can easily ruin a project if one is not aware, as it can sneak into the final delivery, making it a serious issue.
