from a quick look: looks OK.

Single things I'm not yet fully sure (sorry) is UX, i.e., would it make sense
to have this in the Display field when selecting spice? I mean:

Pros
 + Makes only sense to have if one has spice
 + Most people using spice probably want this too, so shortcut to get to it
   (if I'd even have it default to on/add)

Cons
 - Could seem a bit strange to have audio in a display component
 - if more audio stuff comes we'd need to split it up again, or have the
   possibility to add spice audio two different ways (non-ideal)

@Tim, @Domninik: what do you think?
