Should this be easy to verify with network monitoring? audio data is quite heavy. I'm assuming if audio information gets uploaded, it will be quite obvious on the data. We haven't heard about it, and I'm for that reason I don't think it actually does not do it (i.e. the ring buffer hypothesis is likely correct).
