It actually kind of makes sense that they aren't supposed to laugh during auditions - I think seeing how well a comedian can cope with nobody responding at all is a really good idea. Because some people get thrown off when nobody is laughing at all for so long, so seeing how well someone can keep going with NO audience response seems like it'd be a good way to see how well someone could cope with live tv.

The actual reason they do not laugh is because Michaels records auditions for further study. He may be undecided at the time of the audition, so they are taped to have hom view them again. The silence is because Lorne wants a clean recording for evaluation. [This information came from Ana Gasteyer in an interview years ago]

Andy Samberg mentions in an old interview with stern that when he got booked for a second audition, he was told to he could just redo the material from the first. But about a day or two before the audition he got a heads-up to do something original. He wasn't sure if he just got bad advice first or if it was intentional to see how quick he could come up with something good under pressure.
