commit 2f5eaa2601449f0819938097623ad0af0f17a9f0

    Disable audio abstraction by default.
    
    The person who added it also wrote "I have never managed to get the sound
    working in the Tor Browser either, on YouTube or even playing an MP3", which
    shows that including this abstraction by default gives no practical benefit, but
    opens the attack surface substantially.
