Dear Mujtaba, That is exactly why I wanted to mute some announcements. It is very irritating during nights when the phone makes announcements. And the issue is more disturbing when we share the room with a family member or friend. And the situation is no different in a meeting in a closed room. We must figure out a way to avoid this trouble. I think one way is to mute voice over in such situations. But there must be some other way.
