My Olympus Vg-120 Camera Records Blurry Videos When Sound Is Turned On

I purchased the VG-120 camera about 1 month ago and everything was working great,but lately when i record a video with sound (HD,same settings as before) the picture is blurry,as if the auto-focus isn't working.When i turn the audio off,the video records as it should and focuses properly.Do you know why this is happening and what i should do?
