Research direction

Start by reading LocalAudioTrack.startCapture in package:livekit_client/src/track/local/audio.dart, where the reported AudioProcessingException(platformUnavailable) originates. Trace how setMicrophoneEnabled(true) reaches that call on iOS and check linked pull request #1212 for work already underway; done means the microphone can be enabled without this error.
