Comment (by andrew46):

 If it adds any weight to this enhancement request for FFmpeg to support
 USAC / xHE-AAC there is now (as of early 2020) an Open Source encoder
 available:

 This will doubtless result in more xHE-AAC sample files circulating in
 'the wild' and a greater interest in encoding and decoding xHE-AAC (USAC)
 files...
