isowords is running audio and using battery even when the isowords audio settings have turned audio off.

[GeekAndDad]

Describe the bug
Audio is turned off in isowords settings.
Battery in System Settings is showing significant percentage of battery drain and Audio as the load.

To reproduce
Turn audio off, run isowords for a couple of games, go to battery (an hour later) and look at the description.

Expected behavior
If Audio is turned off isowords should be spending zero cpu cycles playing audio. Quick look at the code makes it seem like there aren't any checks for sound off and it just plays the audio with zero volume. You'd hope iOS would be smart about that, but it seems it may not be.
