Ah, excuse me.

I was a court reporter in court for 20 years. Babies crying didn’t bother me, but a public defender had his watch set to go off every minute to remind him to breathe. Yes, it happens. He couldn’t wear his watch in my court again.

Not sure what your point is. Of course the judge can control his court (to a certain degree). If you are in my house, I can control you from making sound by tossing you out. But in the general public, nobody has the right to a sound-free environment.
