EE's built-in voice chat can degrade all Bluetooth audio output on some Linux distros while EE is running and a headset with mic is connected, even if EE's built-in voice isn't sending or receiving voice data. For example, Fedora 40+ drops audio output from A2DP to HSP/HFP while EE is running.

Add a Preferences File option to disable built-in voice chat. This setting defaults to 1 (enabled) and should not change the existing default state of EE's built-in voice chat.

Note that this only prevents the NetworkAudioRecorder from being created. I think the client will still receive built-in voice chat via NetworkAudioStream. Haven't been able to test it to confirm.

Might even need to set this to 0 per default, seeing that it doesn't work great...
