As usual, not clear in retrospect why I couldn't see it, but probably something to do with my being terrible at sound puzzles and fearing I was supposed to be seeing things that I wasn't. Glad to see you back, thanks. :)

It wasn't until I saw you write that it was a sound puzzle that I looked again and figured it out immediately. The WSJCC this week has 'sound' in the title.
