Sound was vibration that was audible to the ear.

Some lifeforms were highly sensitive to loud noise. These included the Sensorites, (TV: The Sensorites, PROSE: The Monsters from Earth) the Voord, (PROSE: The Fishmen of Kandalinga) the Ethereals in their cloud form (PROSE: The Cloud Exiles) and the Verdants. (COMIC: Mission for Duh)

The sound of static power pulses was associated with the Daleks. (COMIC: The Only Good Dalek)

During the Dummy Massacre, (PROSE: Dummy Massacre) when the London Eye was activated by the Nestene Consciousness (TV: Rose, PROSE: Operation Mannequin) at least one person on the Eye found themselves unable to see due to the brightness and unable to talk because of the noise. (PROSE: Dummy Massacre)

A sonic screwdriver could project sound to lock or unlock doors. (TVThe Mutants, Aliens of London)

Sound waves could reflect off of metal objects. Sonar systems used this property to determine the distance to an object. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Sea-Devils)
