I think I would be inclined to look right at the person interrupting me and either silently mouth "be right with you" or hold up my index finger to ask them to wait until I'm off the phone.  It is impossible to listen to 2 people at the same time and get both conversations accurate.  By acknowledging the person who interrupted you, you let them know that you see them and will get to them as soon as you are free.  I find it very difficult to know when people are actually involved in a conversation when they are using a headset, and if I inadvertently interrupted someone I would appreciate they at least acknowledge my presence and let me know they are on the phone and that I'll be next.
