If bera test was done satisfactorily and suggested no abnormalities then you can be assured that the hearing is normal.. However if you still are tensed about it do take a second opinion.
Next Steps
In case the issue is only that the child is not responding when called or is fixed in doing what he is doing and is not interacting with other children or parents please visit a pediatrician to rule out any developmental disorders
