Overview

Audio messages allow you to send an audio file to a WhatsApp user. Source: https://developers.facebook.com/documentation/business-messaging/whatsapp/messages/audio-messages

Audio messages do not support captions. To send audio you must either:

- Upload the audio via Whatsapp::Media#upload to obtain a media_id, then pass it as `id`
- Pass a publicly hosted URL as `link` (not recommended by Meta)
