Game pause screens should have no audio whatsoever.

No music, no dialogue, no sound effects, nothing. When you pause it’s to talk to someone, either on the phone or in the house. It’s also to listen for sounds you need to identify: pets doing something they aren’t supposed to, food / package delivery or even just a noise in the house or directly outside. Why have to look for a remote and push a second button for silence when you could just hit pause the moment you need to?
