FaceTime icon on Apple TV 4K screen can not be disabled

When anyone in my house is on a Facetime call I get a small green icon on my ATV4k screen. I can't remove this annoying icon. I have tried to delete the facetime app from my ATV4K which I can not. I turned off notifications and enabled do not disturb for my focus.

I have been searching so if anyone knows how to get this icon to stop appearing over my content and even my screen savers then please let me know.

If I can't use the ATV4K to watch movies without little icons I will have to stop using the ATV4K. I hope someone cares enough to relate.

I hope there is an eventual solution that lets me use the ATV4K to see content without cute icons on top. Until then I'm putting my ATV4K in storage. I prefer videos without the extras on screen.

Same problem. Kid is on FaceTime and icon pops up at the right hand corner. Deleted her profile and it stills pop up. No solution
