Ring Pro delayed mechanical chime

I just installed my new Ring Pro.When I push the button on the Ring Pro, it takes 2-3 seconds for my mehcanical chime in the house to activate.I have the Ring Power Kit installed correctly, and the Ring Pro will actively record, but the mechanical chime delay is annoying.I do have two internal mechanical chimes (one upstairs and one downstairs) powered by a 20-year-old 16V transformer.My questions:1. Is a mechanical chime delay normal?2. Will increasing the transformer size to 24V help at all, especially since i have 2 chimes?3. My RSSI flutuates between -50 and -70 (which is good to poor), so I can reposition my router closer to the front door, but does that have anything to do with the ring delay?4. I saw a post from a user who swapped the transformer/front wires on the mechancial chime and resolved some different issues, but will that help here?Thanks for any advice and suggestions. Two of the main reasons I got the Ring Pro were sp that I could continue to use my internal chimes and becuase I was tired of my Arolo camera delays, but maybe I just traded one delay for another.
