Description
Simple as that, FileIO has no explicitly declared m4a extension, but from my small research it infers MP4 from some bytes. However m4a files usually store only audio.
And due to this pure audio m4a file is decoded as video file

Research direction
Start by tracing FileIO's file-type inference for .m4a files and inspect existing format-detection tests. Reproduce the issue with a pure-audio M4A file; done means FileIO identifies it as audio and does not decode it as video, with a regression test covering that case.
