If the code is embedded in the audio filename, or as part of the HTML,
the CAPTCHA itself is kinda useless to a serious attack.  The attacker
will simply read the code from the HTML/URL

You need the secret code to never actually leave your server for it to
stay secret.

That said, CAPTCHA can usually be broken by OCR by a serious attacker,
though that takes a little longer than simply reading the code from
HTML.

Presumably somebody somewhere could (or already has) hook up voice
recognition to an audio CAPTCHA and defeat that as well.
