Data Fields
uint32_t	batch_count
	Number of audio chunks in this batch (usually AUDIO_BATCH_COUNT = 32).
uint32_t	total_samples
	Total audio samples across all chunks (typically 8192).
uint32_t	sample_rate
	Sample rate in Hz (e.g., 44100, 48000).
uint32_t	channels
	Number of audio channels (1=mono, 2=stereo).

Detailed Description

The metadata prefix for a batch of encoded audio samples. batch_count, total_samples, sample_rate, and channels let the receiver allocate or route the batch correctly before it touches the encoded payload. The header is serialized with the packet; the audio bytes remain in the enclosing packet buffer.

Audio batch packet structure (Packet Type 28)

Contains multiple audio chunks batched together for efficiency. Reduces packet overhead by aggregating 32 chunks (8192 samples) per packet.

Note: Audio samples follow this header in the packet payload.; Format: float samples[total_samples] (interleaved if stereo); At 44.1kHz, this represents ~186ms of audio per batch.
