This criticism doesn't really make sense to me. We're watching through the lens of an invisible space camera with some sort of amazing lighting rig to make things look better. Why can't that space camera also have a laser microphone and sound synthesizer which makes things make noise to provide audio cues that the audience can latch on to? Alternately: the gun and engine noise comes from the same place that the background music comes from, and nobody questions that.

The lore is that they have extremely cheap "camera" drones. And that the neural interface synthesizes sounds (and other senses) to increase your awareness. The Expanse does sounds inside ships just fine. You hear your own ship firing, you don't hear others. And whenever actors (as opposed to a disembodied camera) are in space, they don't hear anything.
