Subject: [PATCH] fix(iOS): don't set isInitialized flag when skipping Web
 Audio on iOS

Previously, the code was setting isInitialized = true on iOS even though
no AudioContext was created. This caused isReady() to return true, which
led other code to try to use the non-existent audio context.

Now isInitialized remains false on iOS, so isReady() returns false and
the code properly falls back to using the standard HTMLAudioElement APIs.
