Well if you're wearing headphones then the solution is simple. Install Equalizer APO and then a dialog booster VST plug in (there are many, don't make me do the googling). Alternatively you could just boost the frequencies you struggle to hear the most to solve the issue.

There's a significant amount of detail lost in using gates and expanders in film. Drives me up the fucking wall that we still use hardware and software that's not very good. I'd much rather hear some noise than transients and tail air. I stg.
