My vague understanding is that having background sound helps make it more ignorable, and I assume that there are other things that one can do to make it less of an irritant.

I mean, let's say that your leg is blown off by a landmine. That may make you depressed or whatnot. You can treat secondary factors, even if you can't regenerate the leg.
