Humm… have you ever tried to port and run audio code on the GPU? Basically audio code is not well suited for data parallel kind of parallelism you have on a GPU, and yes you also have latency issues in a "real-time" kind of use : like transferring audio data between CPU and GPU at each audio callback. And again with emscripten compilation chain porting C/C++ code audio code in asm.js and then on the Web starts to be very interesting. But then the slow denormal issue has to be treated.
