Make JAWS sleep but leave API active?

Hello,
I am writing some custom applications that are intended to be used with JAWS.
I want to make JAWS sleep when the application is active - that is,
not react to anything happening in the application, not read any
controls on its own, etc - but still leave the speech API available
for access by the application.
Basically this means the application is going to provide all of the
vocal UI feedback, rather than relying on JAWS internal methods.
I am doing this because I am using some Windows controls in unusual
ways and allowing JAWS to voice the control as it normally would will
be confusing to the user.
If I use the Config manager and set Sleep, this "sleeps" the API as
well and calls to speak via the API are ignored.
Can I get JAWS to stop all of its own self-voicing while in my app but
still leave the speech API available so I can direct JAWS what to
speak?
Thank you
FM
