I gave this a try, and it worked fine for a few days, but then, for seemingly no reason, the audio returned to the original codec. |

This method has one problem, which is that it the VTO will automatically switch back to the original codec sometimes, and I don't know why. There's a better method, but it will require go2rtc: |

UPDATE: I'm now using AlexxIT/go2rtc#49 (comment)
I was about to give up after writing this comment here, but after downloading a couple of softwares for testing some ONVIF capabilities of my doorbell, I found something that was like Magic:
Happytime ONVIF Client
With this tool, I could change the audio encoding codec that the doorbell uses from the weird PCM S16BE (which is not supported by the WebRTC card by the way) to AAC or a more standard G711. I could even change the codecs for the different channels, so I did:
Channel 1: H264 720P video with G711 audio for use with WebRTC card (for real-time audio and video)
Channel 2: H264 1080P video with AAC audio for use with Frigate (which will save me some CPU cycles because I don't have to transcode the audio codec)

PS: I could not find a way to switch back to the original codec, but I don't mind. I suppose a firmware reset would work, but didn't try.

After (disregard video differences):
I just wanted to document this, perhaps it helps someone in the future.
