In Understanding WCAG it says of Guideline 1.1: "Provide a text alternative (‘alt text’) for non-textual content like images, audio and video, to describe the content or convey the same information"

Guideline 1.1 doesn't typically apply to audio or video (time-based media is listed as one of the exclusions). Suggest: "Provide a text alternative (‘alt text’) for non-text content like images."
