Alternative target: Audio ponyfill #68

Justification

For HTML there's no cross-browser Audio implementation, that could fix a bunch of gotchas.

Smooth audio.currentTime
Regular 'timeupdate' events
Normalized loading by changing audio.src, instead of calling .load in iOS
Missing codecs polyfill
Other gotchas from web-audio-player
Possibly loopStart, loopEnd properties

For node it could just provide a standard primitive ponyfill, like https://www.jsdelivr.com/package/npm/react-native-audio-polyfill.
