Well then, I would start by using 100uF caps. Caps can also be used for timing. Higher capacitance means longer time (refers to speed of charge/discharge). The caps could be keeping the amp active long enough for the mute circuit to do its job. And no, using low-ESR caps won't hurt. Probably won't help (only really useful in high current apps), and will probably be physically larger.
