Change the order of types (SoundManager)

[wooseok123]

Since the default audio context is Web Audio in Phaser, I believe many developers will predominantly use Web Audio. I encountered an issue while trying to use the decodeAudio() as described in Phaser.Sound.WebAudioSoundManager. The tsc throws an error because the type of Phaser.Game.Sound starts with Phaser.Sound.NoAudioSoundManager.

Property 'decode' does not exist on type 'NoAudioSoundManager | HTML5AudioSoundManager | WebAudioSoundManager'.
Property 'decode' does not exist on type 'NoAudioSoundManager'.

While I understand that this is not mandatory, I believe it would be more helpful for developers if the order of the types was reversed. 👍

Please consider the following change:

// Current Order
sound: Phaser.Sound.NoAudioSoundManager | Phaser.Sound.HTML5AudioSoundManager | Phaser.Sound.WebAudioSoundManager;

// Proposed Order
sound: Phaser.Sound.WebAudioSoundManager | Phaser.Sound.HTML5AudioSoundManager | Phaser.Sound.NoAudioSoundManager;

This adjustment prioritizes WebAudioSoundManager while developing, which contains the decodeAudio(), potentially reducing issues related to the mentioned tsc error or etc.

Thank you!

I think the error is correct because the actual Sound Manager may be Web Audio, HTML5, or No Audio depending on the device.

I think the error is correct because the actual Sound Manager may be Web Audio, HTML5, or No Audio depending on the device.

Actually it is not a real error of tsc during the build. While developing on typescript environment, i think tsc implicitly infer the first index of enumerated strings ( NoAudioSoundManager | HTML5Audio | WebAudio ), so its default SoundManager on the dev environment is NoAudioSoundManager.

So linter or tsc throws an type error if i try to use decodeAudio of WebAudioSoundManager.

I do believe it's not necessary because as you said, SoundManager type will be correctly assigned accoring to their devices after builded.

But it'll be more helpful for developers to change the order while developing with typescript. (Because then tsc implicitly infer the WebAudioSoundManager, which is default context of Phaser, preventing potential issues when they try to use WebAudioSoundManager. )

Here's the situation i mentioned above while developing Phaser with Typescript.
