Which one sounds better? I am uncertain as to when the meeting starts/I am uncertain about when the meeting starts.
 
I would probably use the second one. Having said that, in my humble opinion either is possible.
 
To me, the first, though it would depend on the register. In casual every day speech, I don't think the word 'uncertain' is a likely choice. A lot of people would say 'I'm not sure' or 'I don't know'.
