A homophone.
The word sound is both a homograph and a homonym. The spelling and pronunciation for 'sound' does not change with the different meanings: Did you hear that sound? (sound meaning noise) Is he of sound mind? (sound meaning in good condition) Homograph means that the words have the same spelling, but different meaning (regardless of pronunciation). Homonym means that the words have the same spelling, and the same pronunciation, but a different meaning. Therefore all homonyms are homophones.
Homophones are words that sound the same but have different meanings, origins, or spellings. Common types of homophones include homographs (same spelling, different meaning), homonyms (same spelling and pronunciation, different meaning), and heterographs (different spelling, same pronunciation).
