That's what I would do.
And if, for any reason, the mute option is not there, I'll simply turn ALL game sounds off and put my own music.
I already do that sometimes. So, calls still wouldn't work on people who truly are AFK for a good reason and don't want to be disturbed or annoy everyone in the house.
Sometimes I watch TV while I wait for a party. I guess thats a good reason.
