Discussion here  https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/net-dev/2025-June/027254.html

The suggestion was to return null. That might be a long-term direction but for now I'm going with the idea to return SoundClip. It is a little more usable for migration than null.

We might some day get rid of the MultimediaContentHandlers but not here/yet
FYI:  my testing, there's nothing that relies on the audio handlers *except* for tests explicitly for these.
The image case is however used in the java.beans implementation
I submitted  https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8359727
