Yeah, I tried something similar, and my DH looked like I'd spit in his face - supremely insulted. Same deal if I try to leave the room in order to read a book. The best I've been able to do is beg that he put the TV on mute and use the "guide" feature - imagine, you can see what's on each channel without having to switch to the actual channel!
But I think he misses that sensory flash of seeing the image and sound jump into his visual field and assault his hearing.
It's definitely adding to my anxiety and depression. When he goes out of town, the TV stays OFF. <<shudder>> It's like detox.
