Disable DBUS option in www/firefox then build yourself. There's no need
to patch because audio_thread_priority isn't used on non-Linux.
If you're using MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 on Wayland then DBUS is required to
send commands to the remote instance e.g., "firefox <url>" opens a new
tab in existing insntance instead of launching a new one.
