Yes and no.
It would be up for the HTML WG to decide if 'display:none' applied to
<audio> generates any audio "rendering" (after all, you can
programmatically trigger the submission of a form even if the form is
not displayed, right ?) but CSS explicitely say the display
property applies to all elements...

So display _applies_ to <audio> anyway. What it means on the
corresponding audio stream has to be specified.
