Summary
According to a post on X by @michaelaubry, feeding a video model the raw clip let the original face leak through the swap, and his result came back "as Leo with my beard." The fix he describes is to hide the person first using mask, depth and Face Mesh inputs, then run the face swap, then lay the real audio back on. Each step is organized as one Wireflow board. The post had about 7 likes and 340 views when captured, and a separate tip on syncing cuts to music beats was also mentioned.

Why it matters
Creators using AI face swaps on video would be affected if this leak problem is common, since the fix adds masking, depth and audio steps to the workflow. The post is one creator's account with low engagement, and the snippet shows no independent testing. Watch for other creators reproducing these steps before treating the method as reliable.
