If a tree falls in a forest, and there's no one around to hear it, does it still make a sound?

Of course! Duh!
Duh! No way!
Huh, I'm not sure.
Obligatory last choice that has squat to do with the question. :O

I was once told by a physics teacher that he believed the answer to this question is no because sound is the translation of sound waves into electric signals that are then interpreted by your brain into what we hear as sound. If there is no one there to hear it then there are sound waves being produced but there is no one there to interpret those sound waves into sound.
