The code needs some changes. On the JavaScript side (frontend):

The JavaScript object must be converted into a string.
Besides the data, nonce and key must also be encoded using Utf8. Although the key could also be hexadecimal encoded to a 16 bytes key, in this context it must be Utf8 encoded to a 32 bytes key, because sodium.crypto_secretbox expects a 32 bytes key. The expected nonce must be 24 bytes in size.
Now the data can be encrypted.
sodium.crypto_secretbox returns the data as Uint8Array, which must therefore be encoded for transfer into a suitable format, e.g. hexadecimal.

The corresponding code is:
