Ability to disable voice messages in a room. #1586

Your use case

Similarly to the desire for admins to disable replies, edits, reactions etc in a given room (e.g. if it's bridged to a medium which doesn't support them, or if socially they are not desirable), we should provide the same config setting for voice messages. See https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/3208.

Have you considered any alternatives?

In theory this in particular will be possible with a complete extensible events migration. Currently voice messages are a crossover between msgtype and extensible events (for migration purposes), but once we get our very own m.voice event type then it can simply be blocked.
