It would be negotiated the same way as any other WebRTC stream (using JSEP, SDP, O/A).  But the stream itself wouldn’t use datagrams, and thus wouldn’t use ICE (because it wouldn’t need it).  That’s why I described this as being ‘WHIP-light’ - a subset of the WHIP protocol just for this simple class of streams.

Would it run DTLS over comedia ?
If not how would the SRTP keys be generated ?
how would bandwidth estimation /congestion control work ?
Without ice how does continuing consent work?

Unless I am mistaken it will take quite a lot of work to engineer this into the webRTC stack on a browser.

I am also not convinced that the results are much different from piping webAudio into a websocket.
