Why did you change from display:none to an empty element? Browsers have
already implemented it as display:none, and I think it's a nicer behavior
for authors who want to style audio elements that expose controls (e.g.
giving a border) without affecting audio elements without controls.
I suggest forcing display:none, like with <noscript>.
