Jeez, storing a huge WAV file for the several hundred encoded bytes reminds me of the cryo-flux approach to backing up floppies vs FC5025 which reads floppies like floppies.
How about "encoding" the audio into a file, then playing the saved encoded file back as audio? More work for sure, not sure if it's even possible (seems like it should be).
