After solving the wave equations, we compute the leakage time of the wave energy contained within the acoustic cavity at radii $r_2 < r < R$. The wave energy contained within the acoustic cavity is simply  \begin{equation}  \label{eqn:ecav}  E_{\rm ac} = \int^{R}_{r_2} dr \, \rho r^2 \omega^2 \bigg( | \xi_r |^2 + \ell(\ell+1) | \xi_\perp |^2 \bigg) \, ,  \end{equation}  where $\xi_\perp$ is the horizontal component of the wave displacement vector. The rate at which energy leaks through the inner boundary is  \begin{equation}  \label{eqn:eleak}  \dot{E}_{\rm leak} = \int d \Omega \, \rho r^3 \omega^3 \bigg[ {\rm Re}\big( \xi_\perp \big) {\rm Im}\big( \xi_r \big) - {\rm Re}\big( \xi_r \big) {\rm Im} \big( \xi_\perp \big) \bigg] \,  . \end{equation}
