I also faced this issue. And here’s what worked for me so far. Audio is working as it was. And there’s no significant increase in my resource usage.

I think the idea here is to convert the audio format and sampling rate. I’m not sure about the details, I just did many trials and errors. I’m on unifi protect 2.1.2, and the camera is g4 doorbell

RTMP is used for the camera entity stream in home assistant. Many users use the frigate-hass-card which can use the frigate jsmpeg stream instead and RTMP can be disabled so figured I’d ask.

but would be nice if frigate / ffmpeg could support 48000Hz

would have to see if this is on ffmpeg specifically or something frigate can do about it, seems in general an issue ubiquiti should address / give options for

but would be nice if frigate / ffmpeg could re-sample the audio

that should already be doable using input args (assuming ffmpeg supports it). Maybe try just using the same args in addition with -q:a # per https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67880409/ffmpeg-how-to-resample-audio-file
