Ah, OK, thanks for reporting back.

That's on purpose, since it's not been evaluated yet how dangerous
enabling audio support could be (both for security and for anonymity),
and the relevant bits haven't been developed in the profile yet.

You might give it a try to edit
/etc/apparmor.d/torbrowser.Browser.firefox -> look for "sound
hardware". Not sure it will be enough without also allowing the
browser to run PulseAudio, though (and I guess it will need its own
one, since it runs with a custom $HOME).

Cheers!
