The dependencies are only a part of the problem. HTML5 media and WebAudio are two different specifications. While we want HTML5 media always on if GStreamer is found it might not always be the case for WebAudio, which is less mature and actually, still webkitPrefixed for web developers.

Anyway, I suppose that's ok... In the past haven't enabled WebAudio build by default because the backends were immature but recently we discussed to enable it by default. So we can leave this is as it is, unless Martin has some objections.
