Evolution would say: nope. And the surviving class would be deaf. No one is able to accept a permanent jackhammer.
Evolution might just block out certain frequencies. No need to go completely deaf.
Like the frequency dying plants make? Makes sense. Looks like evolution could already did this in the past.

alright that's it, I'm never eating plant based food again.
What... What's let to eat then?
meat, exclusively
Sure, meat doesn't make sounds while dying. /s
well at least you can hear it. what the plants have is some I have no mouth but I must scream type shit. also they can't even run away. eating vegetables is absolutely inhumane.
The animals you eat eat a lot more plants during their life than you ever could.
The solution is obvious: Only eat baby animals. They grow on their mothers' milk, which hurts no one.
Correct conclusion
Fungi.
Wait you mean you guys can't hear that?
Thanks for making me aware 🙇
