Answer 1

If you just want to disble the voice from microphone to come into the speakers do

myMic.setLoopBack(false);

This will disable the sound detected by microphone to be played in the speakers.

EDIT1:

//use the function to disable sound completely.


 private function disableSound():void
 {
    var newSoundTransform:SoundTransform=new SoundTransform();
    newSoundTransform.volume=0;
    this.soundTransform=newSoundTransform;
}

Call the above function in init() function. This will completely disable all sounds coming from the application.
