soalan pendengaran tertekun


Explanation:
If you want something that sounds more "Malay", then "tertekun" is an alternative. It is common to say "mendengar dengan tekun" to mean listening intently, or in other words focused.

For verification that the match is accurate, see "tertekun" in Kamus BM-BI of Dewan Eja Pro and also under the entry "tekun" in Kamus Dewan of Dewan Eja Pro.
