system 2 is showing extra for gt6 and gkt3
2 questions.

1. why?
2. how to get the systems to match up ?
 
Look at pkg -vv. I'm betting one is set to the quarterly packages and the other to latest. That would explain the version differences.

As for the *-gtk2, *-gtk3 and *-qt6 differences. They're different 'flavors' of audacious. Each flavor uses a different toolkit for the GUI part. One is GTK2 based, one for GTK3 and one for QT6.

Code: 
Package flavors (<flavor>: <package>)

        qt5: audacious
        qt6: audacious-qt6
        gtk2: audacious-gtk2
        gtk3: audacious-gtk3

Remove the 'flavor' you don't need on system 2 or install the same flavors on system 1.
