can't completely mute sound on iphone 10XR

I need to have an iphone and iPad in the same room on a group Skype call. I do not want any sound going into or out of the iPhone. It is meant to be used as a video only supplemental camera for the call.

I have turned the iPhone volume all the way down and the Ringer switch is on Silent. When I speak, which is picked up by the iPad microphone, I hear a faint but audible echo of that sound coming out of the iPhone. Skype will not let me be in a call without access to the microphone so I can't deal with it that way.

Is there any way to cause NO sound at all to come out of the iPhone from a Skype call like this?

The only possible explanations is: You are using Live Listen with AirPods

Please use Noise Cacellation

Open Control Center on your iOS or iPadOS device. While wearing your AirPods Max or both AirPods, touch and hold the volume slider until you see the additional controls. Tap the Noise Control icon in the lower-left corner. Tap Noise Cancellation, Transparency, or Off.

What are Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode?
