The answer

Young men and women should be in separate communication groups to avoid what is unlawful (haram) and temptation (fitna). If there is a need for a joint group, there is no harm in it, provided that Islamic guidelines are adhered to and temptation is avoided. If there is no need for a woman to send an audio clip in a group with non-mahram men, then she should not do so. However, if there is a need, there is no harm in it, provided that she avoids softening and alluring her voice. A woman's voice is not considered 'awrah (something that must be concealed) according to the more preponderant opinion, based on the Almighty's saying: "And when you ask [his wives] for something, ask them from behind a partition" and His saying: "then do not be soft in speech [to men], lest he in whose heart is disease should covet, but speak with appropriate speech."
