They had some Android based tablets. I assume they had audio. I don't think they were particularly successful and Kobo stopped selling them years ago. To add audio to their current devices would be a major redesign of both the hardware and software. I think there would be so many compromises to do this, it wouldn't make anyone happy. Especially as any recent smart phone will already do a very good job of any audio needed.
