Note that it needs flexibility, as in some cases, one would like to be able to link to a specific form. For example Sv-anden (wild duck).ogg should link to L251549#F2

I would link to the lexeme, and use "object form" as a qualifier when it's really necessary. Most of the time, it'll be possible to detect which forms it matches (when P9533 (audio transcription) on the file matches the form representation), the search works better for lexemes, there can be multiple forms with the same representation, and there won't always be a matching form (e.g. languages with extremely large numbers of possible forms).

I can think of two situations where linking specific forms is necessary:

When a lexeme has forms which are written the same but pronounced differently, e.g. Knie in German.

• https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:De-Knie.ogg could have "pronunciation of lexeme: L295199" with qualifiers "object form: L295199-F1, L295199-F3, L295199-F4".
• https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:De-Knie_Plural.ogg could have "pronunciation of lexeme: L295199" with qualifiers "object form: L295199-F5, L295199-F6, L295199-F8".

When the text being spoken includes other words (like "a" or "the"), e.g. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Le_chat.ogg.

• That file could have "pronunciation of lexeme: L511" with qualifier "object form: L511-F4".
