Option to remove the new audio progress indicator

The audio player progress indicator doesn’t go the right way for our language, and the numbers next to it are in English script.
It would be great to have an option to remove this, so it just works the way it used to by solely having the buttons for play/pause etc.
(alternatively an option to be able to use a numbering scheme of our choice, and a direction of our choice for the progress indicator)
Thanks
