             I've had a report that the channel count returned by AudioUnitGetProperty above is inconsistent with

+            UPDATE 20/02/2025:
+            When testing on the simulator with an iPhone 15 and iOS 17 I get an error when initializing the audio
+            unit if set the input channels to pAudioSession.inputNumberOfChannels. What is happening is the channel
+            count returned from AudioUnitGetProperty() above is set to 2, but pAudioSession is reporting a channel
+            count of 1. When this happens, the call to AudioUnitSetProprty() below just down below will succeed, but
+            AudioUnitInitialize() further down will fail. The only solution I have come up with is to not set the
+            channel count to pAudioSession.inputNumberOfChannels.
