The cantrip will produce the sound of various forms of exhale, including a sigh, the sound of exhausted breathing and the sound of air leaving a bladder.
A sigh will be taken as the sound a bored person makes; cast when an individual is giving a performance or a speech, there is a 1 in 6 chance of the sound causing the performer or speaker to erupt in anger, spoiling the effect desired from the audience.
Exhausted breathing will convince a listener that someone nearby has just completed a run and is now trying to catch their breath; depending on the circumstances, this will cause a guard or some other defensive person to investigate, although this is a judgement call by the DM. In any case, it will certainly get the attention of a nearby listener, so that they will be surprised 3 in 6 if approached from another direction.
Finally, 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. A failure will indicate the listener will remain stock still, staring at the perceived source of the sound. They will not turn if they're approached from the flank or rear. The chance of surprise is unaffected.
