Retrieve the generated music sample from the server

After sending a request for music generation, this task is added to the queue. This endpoint lets you check the status of a audio generation task using its id, obtained from the endpoint described above. If the video generation task status is complete, the response will include the final result — with the generated audio URL and additional metadata.
