Does sound need to be percieved to exist? Sound is a waveform correct?

The sound energy waves expressed by a tree falling are going to happen whether or not a discerning perception device is nearby.

Although I believe trees are sentient, I chose option one because I think sentient reception of the energy waves is irrelevant.
