Of course it is intentionally distorted, to prevent defeating it by
speech-recognition, that then would even be more effective to break
the captcha than trying to automatically solve the visual one.

The same thing with the visual one applies: if you cannot solve the

Takes longer with the audio challenge of course, but OTOH people with
visual impairment might have better trained hearing.
