Audio tracks, either those associated with your video or tracks that are just audio, are displayed as blue areas at the bottom of your Timeline.

If you want to stop the audio from playing on a particular audio track you can:

Turn off the audio for a particular track in the Timeline by selecting the hide button to the far left. The audio then will not play as part of your sequence of clips.

If you want to adjust the overall audio level for a track, making it louder or softer, you can:

Double click on the audio track in the Timeline, which will open up an audio editing box in the Viewer above. Then you can click on the horizontal purple audio level line in the middle of on your audio track and drag it down to lower the overall audio level or up to increase the audio level.
