Sadly, this doesn't work for single player. It works in multiplayer, but in singleplayer it just disabled a bunch of character voices and sound effects, and I still had music, in game and in menu.

Really wish there was a way to disable music in singleplayer. It's the first thing I do in any CoD title. Drives me nuts.

What I did was create another folder under Ghosts called Music and I cut and pasted the sound files into it. If I ever need them again, it will be easy to move them back to their original location. The MP game is so much better without the music and you can hear a lot more of what's going on without it. Eliminating the music helped me improve my K/D ratio.

I'll gift a free game out of my inventory to anyone who can tell me how to make this work in single player....

[EDIT] Actually, I managed to figure this out on my own. I didn't realize there were two different soundfile.pak sets, one in the main Ghosts directory, and the other in the "english" subfolder, with the eng_ prefix. Turns out, I was removing the ones in the "english" subfolder, most of which are related to the voice/announcer in multiplayer, which was why my dialogue was messed up. The ones in the main directory are related to the single player soundtrack. Removed those and finally got rid of the music.

There are 78 "eng_soundfileX.PAK" files, which ones are for the God awful music?!

I moved away all the soundfile*.pak files, leaving the eng_*.pak files,
This gets rid of ther music, but also some background sounds,
specially in action sequences that are then too quiet.
If somebody has found out which of the 67 soundfile*.pak files to ditch
to remove *only* the music, please let us know...

Apparently these are the Files you need to remove, unsure, still testing, still looking.
soundfile1.pak to soundfile1.pak.old
soundfile59.pak to soundfile59.pak.old
soundfile62.pak to soundfile62.pak.old
