Thanks for the PR!
I am concerned that when a thick border is applied, it will make the player less visible:
Is there any problem with applying a border to the block itself rather than the audio element?
Note: In the screenshot below, display:block has been applied to the audio element to prevent space from being displayed below the audio element.
However, I would like to hear the opinion of @aaronrobertshaw, who is knowledgeable about this initiative.

Thanks for continuing these efforts @akasunil and the ping @t-hamano 👍

Yeah, I agree. That doesn't look great in my opinion.
The current approach for applying border styles here conflicts with the application of padding on the wrapper as well. I think it only makes sense to apply them to the same location.
To be honest, I'm not even sure that padding should have been adopted on the audio block's wrapper. As it doesn't increase the size of the player at all, the best it could achieve visually is the same as margin (given no color support).
Applying padding and border to audio elements is pretty inconsistent/broken across browsers. I'm really not sure whether it's something we want to add if it can't be done consistently.
Here's the current state of this PR:

It might be possible to achieve better results applying styling to various vendor prefixes to style the different browser audio players but I'm not convinced the complexity is worth it for what seems a very niche use case.
It might pay to get some design feedback on this one.

I can comment on that because I added it 😄 The main effect padding achieves is reducing the width of the player. Margin is the one that can potentially break layout in classic themes: try setting left/right margin on an Audio block in Twenty Twenty to see an instance of this. (I just realised it in testing right now, for some reason missed it on the original PR) If the effect we're after here is creating a frame for the player though, we could potentially achieve that with both border-radius and background color support, coupled with padding. For example: on the figure element. |

If the border is moved to the figure, it will not affect the size of the audio element, but it will wrap the caption. |
