There’s anecdotal correlation between neurodivergence (such as ADHD) and a difference in how people take in and process sensory input.

I interpret this as ADHD developers who see hyperfocus are able to either tune down or ignore some of that audio sensory input. But the flip side is also true where they might accidentally hyperfocus on that specific annoyance/input.

Or to put it another way: some of our brains can do this already. But be wary what you wish in terms of unintended side effects.
