As I've said before, not that I'm defending Paul but ...
Acts 9
"7And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.8And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus."
Acts 22
"9And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me."
Note that the Acts 9 says they saw no man. Acts 22 says they saw the light. Even Paul says he saw no man. It is also entirely possible that they heard a voice, but that it wasn't the same voice that Paul heard. This can and does happen in a crowd or when two or more talk at the same time. Their attention could have been focused on another voice while Jesus spoke to Paul, thus allowing Paul to receive the message for him while the event had witnesses who could vouch that a supernatural event had occurred.
Not saying this is accurate, but that is how I take it. Admittedly I haven't read a lot of Paul's writings.
Listen to Moses, the prophets and Yahushua of Bethlehem our King. Do not however listen to Paul, the liar. Take note of this in your Bible----- Acts 9: 1-7:
1 And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest, 2 And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem. 3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven: 4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? 5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. 6 And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do. 7 And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man
So as we see, Acts verse 7 says that the men who were with Paul heard a voice, but saw no man, they saw no one. Now let us compare this with Acts 22 5-9:
. 5 As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished. 6 And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me. 7 And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? 8 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest. 9 And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me.
