I hear ya. Like you, I drive in Sport/Sport+ most of the time so it's not an issue then. However when driving for 2+ hours on the highway with cruise set at 80mph, my wife especially doesn't enjoy the background drone we hear.
According to this document, when drive mode is set to Comfort the exhaust flap should close. Mine refuses. Have you tested this with your car sitting at idle to see if your valve closes? (after the initial startup has settled down of course)
