Undecoded Message
Ok, so I have more info. I spent the morning on the phone with Adobe tech support and we couldn't figure out the issue.

We tried:
Trashing prefs
Updating to the latest build
Fixing permissions
Uninstalling drivers.

Occasionally my machine would preview correctly but then once I started working on my project it would stop behaving.

I have no figured out how to reproduce the issue.

If I am in the default workspace my machine previews fine and the info palette displays "playing back from RAM 24fps". 

As soon as I undock my timeline and try and preview, it has the issue of stuttering and not showing ""playing back from RAM 24fps".

No idea why but at least I have a workaround (although it sucks having to use the default workspace)

No color management, whats most weird is the fact that it doesn't say that is playing back from RAM in the info pallet.

do you have color management on?
 
CC prefs default previews prefs for zoom and CM are now set to more accurate vs faster

I occasionally run into a comp whose RAM preview will lag visually, out
of sync with the audio, until the first play-through then it starts
again and the video "keeps up" with the audio.  Do you get the red
message in the info box that says "Preview NOT real-time" followed by
"Composition not at 100%" or something like that?
