Just because you can't hear it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. Earmuffs can prevent sound as can soundproof walls - does that mean that there's no sound beyond those surfaces?

There are sound waves caused by various Sun-related chemical reactions such as fusion, and they do emit "sound" - just that we can't hear it in space. On the other hand, if we got the usual equipment used to detect sound, we would find sound being emitted from the Sun.
