Hi Kevin,

You asked:

> find an easy solution for that.

Answer:  There is no automated way as far as I can tell.  The method I use is 
to listen and determine where the sound begins, split the clip at that location 
(cmd-t), select the previous or next clip (cmd-[ or cmd-]) depending on what 
needs cropped then once the selection is made, pressing cmd-k to Crop it.  A 
little cumbersome but workable.

Answer:  You need to first be interacting with the playhead area which is just 
one VO-right arrow past the Toolbar.  When in this area you can press cmd-left 
arrow to take you to the beginning or cmd-right arrow to take you to the end of 
the selection.  Holding down the option key instead of the command key moves in 
very small increments. Press cmd-[ or cmd-] to play a little snippet of the 
beginning or end respectively.

There is a menu-item for selecting a certain area but it doesn't seem to be 
accessible.  I'll write to the developers about that as they are quite good at 
making things work in an accessible way.

HTH.
