[Support]: Audio not working on cameras

Describe the problem you are having

I have recently tried to enable audio for my cameras using the args from the docs and the audio still doesn’t show up for me.

somewhat unrelated, but is the frigate camera page supposed to play audio? I can hear audio over the stream in home assistant, and recordings have audio, but the frigate page does not.

Audio isn’t supported in the web UI.
