How to add ‘class’ attribute into shortcode [audio]?

WordPress allows least three options to manipulate the code to your needs.

  1. Use a global variable that you increment with @Jevuska ‘s answer.

    global $my_audio_player_count;
    $my_audio_player_count = 0;
    
    add_filter( 'wp_audio_shortcode_class', 'wpse221201_audio_shortcode_class', 1, 1 );
    function wpse221201_audio_shortcode_class( $class ) {
        global $my_audio_player_count;
        $class .= ' my-audio-player-'.$my_audio_player_count++;
        return $class;
    }
    
  2. Remove the built-in shortcode and add your own

    remove_shortcode('audio');
    add_shortcode('audio', 'my_audio_shortcode');
    
    function my_audio_shortcode($args) {
        //TODO: Insert your own version of the shortcode
    }
    
  3. Use the wp_audio_shortcode_override filter hook to override

    add_filter('wp_audio_shortcode_override', 'my_audio_shortcode');
    
    function my_audio_shortcode($args) {
        //TODO: Insert your own version of the shortcode
    }
