Disable iOS Safari lock screen scrubber for media
DISABLE Player on lock screen completely
if you want to completely remove the lock screen player you could do something like
const a = new Audio();
document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', (e) => {
a.src = 'http://sprott.physics.wisc.edu/wop/sounds/Bicycle%20Race-Full.m4a'
a.play();
});
document.addEventListener('visibilitychange', () => {
if (document.hidden) a.src = undefined
})

that is stoping the player when changing tab or locking screen (code to be cleaned improved depending on your needs)
From my understanding you can't block/hide the scrubbing commands unless you can tag the audio as a live stream. That being said, you can use js to refuse scrubbing server-side. Reference the answer here. Although that answer speaks of video, it also works with audio.
I did a search, in search of a way to help you, but I did not find an effective way to disable the commands, however, I found a way to customize them, it may help you, follow the apple tutorial link
I think what's left to do now is wait, see if ios 13 will bring some option that will do what you want.
