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.
