fix(FEC-8404): workaround for hlsjs audio switching bug (#69)

workaround for handling immediate audio track switching on hls.js when there's a manifest with multi audio tracks.
The default audio track in the manifest always overrides any prior selection via the API hls.audioTrack = id on initial loading.
Current workaround is checking if there are audio tracks in manifest and if so wait for the initial selection before trying to call the load resolving, which might try to change the audio track later on.
