While it is a minimum of 3 seconds on Facebook, YouTube requires a minimum of 30 seconds of engagement to generate 1 view. In both the cases the audio playback doesn’t affect the views. One can watch the video for 3 seconds or 30 seconds with or without audio playback and the video will generate 1 view.
