Unable to mute other players Microphones (PS5)

If game overall wasn't a big enough mess, I'm now encountering glitches where I can't mute other players mics. It's usually one or two teammates. Some will mute, others won't. After tapping the mic icon, it just makes a weird noise and doesn't do anything. Any tips to make this bearable? I'm trying to complete the battle pass so I can then get my money back and then give up on the title for at least a year due to the severe lack of consistency or consideration this development team has for the title.
