Since I will likely be implementing 'audio' and 'video' types separately I have created a separate issue for video and have changed the description of this ticket to be specific to audio. The video ticket is #1076.

Just some extra information on this issue, it's not simply limited to uploading, all relevant endpoints should be prepared to deal with audio in accordance to the spec. I believe from looking at the ​Activity Streams 1.0 spec the audio object would look something like this:

{
    "id": "https://gmg.site.tld/api/audio/someid",
    "objectType": "audio",
    "displayName": "Title of this audio",
    "embedCode": "<html><to><embed></embed></to></html>",
    "stream": {
        "url": "https://gmg.site.tld/path/to/audio.ogg",
    },
    "author": {
        "id": "acct:someone@gmg.site.tld",
        ...
    },
    "url": "https://gmg.site.tld/html/version/for/users/click"
}
