All transitions fade the audio unless you've applied the transition to the end of a single clip or if you have the transition type set to Cross, instead of Overlap. Does this discussion help?

I used the Fade "Cross" transition and there is no visual transition in the audio timeline nor is there any actual audio transition when listening.
Interestingly, if I select or double click on the "Cross" transition in the timeline to display the Fade options, then select "Overlap" the audio transition appears in the timeline and then immediately select back to "Cross", the audio transition remains in the audio timeline as a Cross transition.

Is there a way to assign an audio transition to a Fade Cross so its done automatically without the extra steps mentioned above?

Yes, set the default transition type to Overlap in Preferences, like this

No, there is always at least one extra step to get audio transition with Cross. It was clearly covered in the second to the last post in the link optodata supplied.

thanks. Yes I had that but it does not also add the transition to the audio track.

I don't know what to tell you. This is what's supposed to happen with the 2 different transition behaviors as you can clearly see here:
