When we are talking to somebody the distance is very less. With such high speeds ,the difference in the time taken for the light to travel is very small . For sound its of the order of milli seconds and for light its of the order of 10-8 sec. This time elapse is prominent at large distance as for lightning where we see the lightning before we hear the thunder.
