It's tough since it's such a big hole and not just a rip...I think you could probably use a leather/vinyl repair kit and a piece of pleather/vinyl that you cut to mostly fill the hole that has worn away, you'd just have to be patient with it.
Or if you don't want to fuss with them too much, you could try something like these. I don't know if they would be uncomfortable or change the sound output, but they're cheap enough that they may be worth a shot.
Doesn't look like a complete tear, more like a scuff with the substrate ok.
You can get vinyl repair goop and texture paper pretty cheap and it works ok - practice on an unseen bit (maybe the underside of the couch?) to get the right color mix and used to the product.

Haven't used the 3M product, and it's been years since I did a repair, but I remember being surprised and pleased at how well it worked out - maybe because the damage looked so bad I didn't have high/gotta be invisible expectations.

Here is what you need.
There are vinyl repair kits you can buy. There's this kind, which is a kind of filler that can be used to fill in scratches and which bonds to the vinyl, and this, which has several components (watch the video).
I've never used any of them, but I figure that with black upholstery it should be easy to make the repair completely invisible.
Sorry, but that's definitely composite or bonded leather. It's a vinyl layer on top of some kind of fabric, and they all inevitably peel. A leather/vinyl repair kit like this will be a temporary fix. Long term fix - don't buy vinyl couches.

You can buy a kit meant for leather and vinyl repair, but it's nearly impossible to match and hide a large area like that. KIT
