Although Audacity 3.1.3 includes FFmpeg in its direct dependencies, it
does not keep a reference to it and cannot find it at runtime.

This is a regression from Audacity 2.4.2.

$ git describe
v1.3.0-15323-gf00ed43653
$ guix gc --references $(./pre-inst-env guix build --no-grafts audacity) | grep ffmpeg
