I don't think aside is supported in beamer.
Where did you see it was supported in the documentation?

As far as I know, it's only documented in https://quarto.org/docs/authoring/article-layout.html#asides which is for HTML and PDF (LaTeX) (we probably need to update the page to include Typst in the introduction cc. @gordonwoodhull).

We shouldn't crash, though.

.tex produced is the following:

\begin{frame}{Slide Title}
\phantomsection\label{slide-title}
Slide content

\marginnote{\begin{footnotesize}

Some additional commentary of more peripheral interest.

\end{footnotesize}}
\end{frame}

I believe we do currently all our column layout processing (including aside and margin) only by checking _quarto.format.isLatexOutput() which include beamer. But possibly not all of this feature are supported in beamer, and we need to escape it (ignore aside environment here probably).
