Hi Phil,

we indeed tried to be too clever for our own good with the rename of the QAudio namespace to QtAudio.

https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtreleasenotes.git/about/qt/6.7.1/release-note.md

documents that Qt 6.7.1 breaks BC with 6.7.0 in order to restore 6.7.1 compatibility with Qt 6.6, so you have to recompile against 6.7.1.
