How to

In order to make Blender run the generated video properly, the resolution and the fps should be set to match the footage. The resolution can be set by selecting a strip > Strip Menu > Movie Strip > Set Render Size. The project/scene fps can be set in the Properties > Output Tab > Format > Frame Rate - set it to Custom and 8.

Alternatively can this .blend be loaded as a quick start, but the add-on still needs to be installed:

Text to Audio

Find documentation here: https://github.com/haoheliu/AudioLDM Try prompts like: Bag pipes playing a funeral dirge, punk rock band playing hardcore song, techno dj playing deep bass house music, and acid house loop with jazz. Or: Voice of God judging mankind, woman talking about celestial beings, hammer on wood.
