We're also experiencing this same bug with Flipgrid. Our case involves a video tag instead of audio tag, but the result is the same. We also have a codepen here to reproduce - https://codepen.io/mg0stisha/pen/OJPVEzm

Steps to reproduce:
- Play the video
- Pause the video
- Click the 'click me' button (this will remove the video from the DOM)
- Accept the camera permissions

Expected: Camera and audio are now in place of the previous video

Actual: Camera is shown but audio from previous video is playing

Firefox: no repro
Chrome: no repro
Edge: no repro

This is currently a production issue for us. The user impact is they are watching other students videos, and then they go to record their own video. Upon accepting camera permissions, the audio of the previous videos they watched then plays in the background causing a jarring experience. 

We really want to create a great experience for Safari users, and currently we are recommending users to download Chrome/New Edge. We're also in the process of developing a workaround for this issue, but would love to help get it resolved if possible instead.

Thank you in advance for your help!
