There is yet another way to mute audio. Use the "Insert Empty Media" menu command. That places an empty event over the audio, effectively muting it. The video and audio need to be ungrouped (U) first. Then use the in and out markers to set the area to mute, press Shift+L to select the area if the area isn't already selected, and right-click on the audio and select Insert Empty Media.
You can delete the empty event and restore the original audio automatically.
