Is there a way to prevent or disable either of the following system PTT screens?

When on the lock screen, you can tap the PTT indicator at the top of the screen to show a full-screen PTT view that includes both a "Leave" and "Talk" button
When on the home screen, you can tap the PTT indicator at the top of the screen to show the PTT "Pill" that includes a "Talk" button

I'd like to prevent showing both of these views. We don't use them in our app (we use PTT to play back messages, but use hands-free voice commands to send messages back).

Is it possible to disable/never show those system PTT views? Screenshots of them attached.

Two different answers:

The UI itself cannot be disabled. One of the PTT frameworks design requirements was that PTT apps needed to be "visible" to the user in a way that they had not previously been.
Setting "PTTransmissionMode.listenOnly" should hide or disable the "Talk" button. If it does not, then please file a bug on that and post the number back here.
