Issue w/ Opus -> Ogg recording voice with prism-media@v2.0.0-alpha.0 - ERR_REQUIRE_ESM

I was trying to follow this example recording voice demo (https://github.com/discordjs/voice-examples/blob/main/recorder/src/createListeningStream.ts#L19C1-L27C5), but I'm running into the following error:

👂 Listening to dimsey8_0
Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module /Users/user/Desktop/unicorn/Voice/node_modules/node-crc/lib/lib.js from /Users/user/Desktop/unicorn/Voice/node_modules/prism-media/dist/ogg/OggLogicalBitstream.js not supported.
Instead change the require of lib.js in /Users/user/Desktop/unicorn/Voice/node_modules/prism-media/dist/ogg/OggLogicalBitstream.js to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.
}

}

I am using ESM instead of CommonJS (the example link uses CommonJS). As a result, despite prism being ESM compatible, an underlying part of it, e.g., node-crc seems to be using CJS. I'm not sure how to go about fixing this. Any ideas would be great. I was thinking of looking for another stream encoder for Opus -> Ogg but I haven't found any that work yet. Does anyone have advice for me? Thank you in advance. Code will be pasted as a comment.

the version of node-crc that example should be using uses cjs, yes but your error indicates that node-crc appears to be using esm, which is the case on newer major versions please ensure that you haven't strayed from the example's dependencies if your package.json looks correct, you may just need to reinstall deps

Thank you so much! That was my issue--my crc-node version was v3 when the documentation uses an older version. Also sending you nitro b/c that just saved me hours and hours @duck Do you mind adding me or something so I can send you the link? I could put it here but then anyone can see it or i can paste here quickly lol
