gcode for silent/normal mode

I'm looking for the proper gcode to enable silent/normal mode. I have tried M914/M915 and the printer returns with a code not supported.  I also found this:

M907 X540 Z830 E500 ;normal mode
M907 X270 Z830 E450 ;silent mode

But these don't seem to quiet the motors like the LCD option does. I also get crash detection errors when I use the above codes, but not when via the LCD.

If someone must argue my use case... my printer is next to me on my office desk. With covid and all the virtual meetings there are times I need to unmute and talk. When that happens I'd like to also put the mk3s into stealth mode via octoprint.  This way I don't have to fumble with the LCD, especially when the video is on.
