I am a network person. When you use UDP, it is up to the protocol layer
above to handle dropped packets.
For example, a volume knob should send a value, not just +1 or -1, and
in a remote environment, it'd be good to send a full set of "settings"
periodically.
... or each UDP command could require an ACK via UDP.
Or a few dozen other answers.
For voice, where latency is more important than dropped sound, you
usually don't try to replace the lost packets.
