+     * The audio data can be a base64 encoded string, an audio media-type data uri, or an ArrayBuffer instance.
+     * 
+     * The `audioKey` is the key that will be used to save the decoded audio to the audio cache.

+     * Decoding is an async process, so be sure to listen for the events to know when decoding has completed.
+     * 
+     * Once the audio has decoded it can be added to the Sound Manager or played via its key.
