useAudioPlayback

In many browsers to start audio playback, the user must perform a user-initiated event such as clicking a button. The useAudioPlayback hook returns an object with a boolean canPlayAudio flag that indicates whether audio playback is allowed in the current context, as well as a startAudio function that can be called in a button onClick callback to start audio playback in the current context.
