I'd love to enable just group Chat, and not enable any of the calling, and then progressively add audio, screen and maybe even video.

This is both for ease of rollout to 140 users and also because our bandwidth at our offices may not allow the others to work well.

I don't know if I'll sound ignorant here, but I tried a voice-only call from app to app and never got it to work right. The icon of the old wired phone handset would start a call but the other person's app had no way to answer it as a voice only call.

Seems like on a big group video chat business meeting it may be handy to let people who might participate in a questions portion of a Q&A might find voice only useful.

@JimBTek
I just was looking for same functionality.
Talk is great for teamworking and discussing an issue but bandwith and connectivity needs are not really easy in the wild.
Would love to see possibility, even if it is disabling audio/video for whole server.
