Delay in radio tuning with RDS enabled?

It's almost like no sound will occur until the full text comes across the nav screen. Thx in advance.

I don’t get a delay in receiving a station but if I quickly surf stations with the steering wheel buttons & RDS enabled, I’ll get one of the station’s information “locked” on the display yet the radio station channels will change. Using the channel buttons on the radio “unlocks” the display. None of this happens when I surf with the channel buttons on the radio or turn off RDS.
