Cannot mute tap sound for Android apps

On a Jolla C with 2.0.2.43, there is a loud 'click' sound whenever I tap buttons in an Android app. Touch screen tones are disabled in settings->sounds and feedback (and indeed native Sailfish apps make no sound). If I set the global volume of the phone to 0% they disappear, but of course this has other unwanted side effects (for instance, no ringtones at all).

Why do Android apps not honor this setting? Is there a separate setting for them?
