As Thekillman said, there was no serious fight between Rinnegan user and genjutsu specialist shown in the series. The absence of proof is not the proof of absence yet. And even if we assume that Rinnegan users are really immune to any visual genjutsu, there's still no proof of them being vunerable to Sage Mode enhanced sound Genjutsu only,QuakingStar. Firstly, you don't nessessary have to enhance sound genjutsu with senjutsu to work on the person who's not immune to the sound effect (as with the case of Sasuke/Itachi being caught in Phantom Sound Chains). Secondly, the genjutsu aren't divided into just sound genjutsu and just visual genjutsu. For example, Kurenai used neither of them, as well as Itachi (sometimes). So, even if Rinnegan wielders can't be affected by visual contact genjutsu, there's still a plenty of other ways to caught them in genjutsu, not nessessary with Sage Mode enhanced sound Genjutsu.
