thats fine the only way to make that com faster is to spend more time in VRChat or get the paid service that helps you rank up, but dont spend money on something before you even know you're gonna enjoy it
start by going into one of the public avatar worlds and see what you can find
and for the audio thing, it tends to start you as muted as you enter a instance, though you can turn this off in settings, also see what mic is being used
