Screen recording in Mac miss first few seconds

Whenever I try to record my screen using the Mac's built-in screen recorder (CMD + Shift + 5), it misses the first few seconds of the recording. I've been facing this issue for over a year now, and even after upgrading my Mac from Monterey to Sonoma, the problem persists.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 14.6

FWIW, On My Macs recording begins as soon as I hit Record. Make sure Time is set to "None" in Options.
