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 a person who's not immune to the sound influence (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 uses neither of them, as well as Itachi (sometimes). So, even if the Rinnegan can block any visual effects that cause genjutsu because of it's doujutsu nature, there's still a plenty of other ways to caught the eyes wielder in genjutsu, not nessessary with Sage Mode enhanced sound Genjutsu.
