Prevent getUserMedia audio feedback on Chrome

When a video and audio stream from a webcam is acquired by getUserMedia and assigned to a <video> element, I can see and hear myself. The audio track however turns into a feedback noise.

The HTMLMediaElement.muted or HTMLMediaElement.defaultMuted however doesn't seem to apply to a live camera feed.

The feedback also occurs even if the <video> element is not connected to the DOM (created by JS).

How can I mute the audio feedback without disabling the stream's audio (getUserMedia with audio:false) alltogether? The audio should be usable with an AudioContext for example.

Add muted attribute to video element (<video id="video" muted />).
