The implication of this is that if you have multiple display backends enabled
only one of them will ever be selectable as the audio backend. It is not
unreasonable to consider that audio should go to all backends, or depending
on which is in use. eg if QEMU has SDL + SPICE enabled, audio could
conceptually go to SDL by default, and get dynamically switched to SPICE
whenver there is a SPICE client actively connected. This is a risk of
trying to design a configuration approach for this, without us asking
QEMU to consider their corresponding design possibilities
