To be fair, there are some people who are forced to sleep on construction sites with all the noise. I think even noise can be filtered out if you are extremely sleepy.
But I think Marcus Aurelius refers to situations that can't be changed and must be handled. We have only the power to react the occurrence of actions is not in our control.
