UV controls scale improperly for audio manifests without ranges #944

Current behavior:
When playing a single audio file, users generally want the UV control to be smallish--120-200 pixels high--since there is no video to display and no navigation needed. When loading a IIIF manifest without ranges containing only audio content, the player controls (play, next, volume, etc) scale down to the height of the div, making them appear to be tiny.
Example:
Expected behavior:
The controls should not scale down, but rather appear at the full width of the player.
Steps to reproduce:
Load this manifest in a div sized at 180px: https://saracarl.github.io/comparison-test/her-kind/manifest.json

According to discussion on UV Slack, this is caused by some special handling for range-less audio content:
- @stephenwf 3 months ago Ah that's loading the media element extension, which doesn't have a compact-mode like that.

- We could add a config option to skip this step

- @stephenwf 3 months ago Picking a manifest with a range that uses the AV component does work at around 180px height
Unfortunately, this work-around only works for manifests that contain ranges, so it is not universal.
