Certain games like Bioshock do it really well - you can listen to audio logs while progressing the game as normal. The examples you list are annoying when they pop up though, and I think the Bioshock method still had drawbacks. There's a general trend in games to restrict the player less in games, which is overall a good thing, but it can make story bits less impactful when you're concentrating on gameplay mechanics (or running in circles) at the same time.

Of course, Bioshock subverts that pretty hard in its most poignant storyline moment...
