Here is an answer on Quora that says that a muon and a positron cannot annihilate via the electromagnetic interaction in the same way that an electron and positron do: http://www.quora.com/Can-a-muon-annihilate-with-a-positron (They can, however, interact via a less interesting two-stage process by way of the weak interaction.)
