A sigh sounds like the expression a bored person makes. If cast when an individual is giving a performance or a speech, there's a 1 in 6 chance of spoiling a bard from properly affecting an audience or causing a rabble rouser to fail in his or her attempt to inspire.
Exhausted breathing convinces a listener that someone nearby has just completed a run, and is trying to catch their breath. This can cause a guard or some other defensive person to investigate, as a judgement call by the DM. In any case, it certainly gets the attention of a nearby listener, making them vulnerable to surprise or open to beginning a conversation.
The sound of air leaving a bladder will be a slow, agonizing hiss. If this sound erupts amid a silence, a listener will be distracted for one full round unless they make a saving throw against magic. Fails cause the listener to remain stock still, staring at the perceived source of the sound, granting an approacher a +1 chance to surprise.
