A linking verb is something such as- is, am, are, was, were, be, being, been, and also likes like seem, smell, appears, became, etc.. They connect the subject to something in the predicate, as for the "for sound" part, I'm not for sure what you mean.
The easy way to recognize a linking verb is that a linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object of the verb is a different form of the subject, or the subject becomes the object. Examples:
Mary is my sister. (Mary=sister)
My feet got wet. (feet->wet).
The fat cat looked happy. (cat->happy)
In depends on context. If the sentence structure is like this:
He sounded the alarm, then sounded is an action verb. If the sentence structure is like this:
He sounded sad, then sounded is a linking verb.
This is a sentence using a linking verb.
A linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object is a form of the subject (this = sentence).

The answer would depend on the specific sentence you are referring to. Action verbs show physical or mental action, while linking verbs connect the subject to a subject complement (noun or adjective). Providing the sentence would allow for a more accurate classification.
