Bob,

A sledgehammer would do a permanent job of it <G>

For something more temporary, an open collector transistor connected to pin 
17 of the MCU (Control Board U6) would do the job for you - drive the base 
of the transistor with 3 to 5 volts to turn it on when you want the K2 
muted.  A 2N2222 or similar should work just fine.
