Automatically mute text tones while on the phone?

Hoping I just have not found this setting.


I want the phone to mute text tones while I am talking on the phone automatically. Is this an option?


Right now I'm flipping the switch on the side of my iPhone 12 Pro before talking on the phone. I frequently forget to turn it back on and subsequently miss important phone calls. Old age: hard of hearing and forgetful doesn't help.

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 15
