Page 1: Chrome picks up high frequency audio; Page 2: Safari doesn't pick up high frequencies

Problem:
There is no way to disable the pre-preprocessing of audio (coming from the microphone). Even with the 'echoCancellation'-Flag set to false high frequencies get filtered out.

What did I try to do:
I'm trying to analyze audio coming from the microphone:

let stream = await navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({
    audio: {
        optional: [
            {autoGainControl: false},
            {noiseSuppression: false},
            {echoCancellation: false}
        ]
    },
    video: false
});
let inputSource = this.audioCtx.createMediaStreamSource(stream);

I wrote a script implementing an algorithm which detects certain frequencies (called Goertzel algorithm). I noticed that it only works for low frequencies (in the range of human hearing). In Chrome however it did work so I assume that there is still some kind of audio processing going even though I tried to disable it.

In the attached PDF-File you can see two screenshots of exactly the same page. The left box is a plot of the raw audio data (512 Samples) and on the right is an indicator that shows the level of 18000Hz. I set my iPad up to play a 18000Hz signal at high volume. Chrome (page 1) processes the audio correctly. Safari on the other hand doesn't pick up those high frequencies.
