Hey there,
As you’ve noticed you pretty much need to know the basic “profile,” I guess, of 
the silence in your audio for best results. You could use the show volume 
filter with ffplay, 
% ffplay -f lavfi -i “amovie=$INPUT,showvolume"
To get a general idea of what the noise is like, and apply the options 
accordingly.
e.g.    Use the levels of the silence/noise sections for the level options, 
setting -20db would cut out a lot more than noise, I think; see if there are 
short periods of noise, other than background noise, but still noise, and see 
how long those are to set a value for the duration options; also see if using 
peak and a window of 10 seconds makes sense (It might not, even if you set a 
more sensible value for the threshold, basically I think that would make it 
treat anything as silence if in a 10 second window it rises above the threshold 
even once)
