In depth

Exported for a second consumer that cannot use AudioGraph. This class is a stem player for a game soundtrack; an application that decodes one file and runs it through its own chain needs this line and not the graph, and a copy of it in another repository is a second version of an iOS behaviour that will be wrong the next time WebKit moves.

The ordering is the part a copy gets wrong and the part a diff cannot show: claimed before the context is constructed, so the context is born into the right session. See autoplay.test.ts for what it is for: iOS puts Web Audio in the ambient session, which the ringer switch silences, so a page built out of AudioContext is the one kind that goes quiet in a pocket.
