These things are tough to tell via a youtube video because of how computers work at different speeds and process sound.

I have the horn, on both videos, being coincident with the release...which is why I looked at the time on the clock.
You really can't trust the sound on any of the streaming videos for that very reason....the path the video takes is different than the path the audio takes and they can get out of sync. The same may also be true of home theaters setups....but probably to a smaller degree. For that matter, the camera taking the video could also introduce some skew.
There is no reason for a horn to start sounding after the clock gets to 0.0 if it is operating correctly. If there is any apparent delay, it would be due to the distance from the horn to the camera, meaning you'll hear the horn later than it when it actually sounds....about 1/10 of a second for every 110 feet. The same applies to the officials....so it is relative to both distances. If the officials are closer, they'll hear it a bit before the camera picks it up.
