Growing up next to a fire department, I grew used to the 3am departures of ambulance and fire trucks with no sympathy for the sleepy children next door. But i grew accustomed to it and in my sleep I could still here a pedestrian coughing on the sidewalk outside. Maybe a deep moat of fire around your safe house, watch shifts, and ambien or lunesta to take the edge off after a long day of hacking and slashing hordes of the undead.

while the constant moaning/grunting/wailing/etc. would get irritating at times, people become accoustomed to the norm (however abnormal it might be), and with time the noise wouldn't be so bad.

don't forget all the things you've gotten used to pre-zombie apocalypse. there's a train that goes past my neighborhood several times everyday, it's so bad it makes the walls shake a little, same with my school. at first it was unbearable, but now i can hardly notice it. the sound of sirens and gunshots, the weird, high-pitched noise the television makes while it's on, the computer humming, people talking (sometimes arguing) in the next room... i never really notice these noises unless i need to.

besides, at some point, either from progressive decay or agressive action, the moaning hoardes would have dissipated somewhat (i would hope at least). and it's better to be aware of your surroundings than try to drown it out.
