How can one mute Zoom on iPad?

Question

How can one mute Zoom on iPad? Turning down the volume doesn't work. I don't mean muting the microphone but muting the other interlocutors.

I am an attendee. I just want to mute the others for myself, but I still want them to hear each other.

This seems to be done on purpose. However, it is possible to use a workaround:

1. Tap on More in the top right corner.
2. Select the option "Disconnect Audio" which is written in red.

To re-establish the connection, tap the icon in the upper right area on the far left named Join Audio.
