Currently this is normal behavior of moodle-dl. Moodle-dl tries to download any external link using youtube-dl. You can't currently specify which links are not downloaded using youtube-dl. But you can specify which external links are downloaded at all, see here: https://github.com/C0D3D3V/Moodle-Downloader-2/wiki/Download-(external)-linked-files
The error is not that the link is downloaded :D Which is generally funny, the audio is downloaded from the login captcha... But the error is that youtube-dl could not create the file, why is still unclear to me. This is again one of the Windows problems.

I guess the problem is that the file name is larger than 255 characters. I guess I have to change something about that.

Yes thats it, according to the windows documentation:
The Windows API has many functions that also have Unicode versions to permit an extended-length path for a maximum total path length of 32,767 characters. This type of path is composed of components separated by backslashes, each up to the value returned in the lpMaximumComponentLength parameter of the GetVolumeInformation function (this value is commonly 255 characters). To specify an extended-length path, use the "\?" prefix. For example, "\?\D:\very long path".
I will think about a possible fix ... for now you can also skip the failure with the --without-downloading-files
flag, look at the readme for details.
