I think it's consistent sound/noise that matters. My Dad worked on a ship and he said when he was trying to sleep the worst sounds were intermittent. He preferred a constant sound no matter what it was.

I think this is it. The change is what does it. Intermittent noise is constant change.

Loud music in the next room never stopped me from sleeping as a kid. I'd wake up when the music turned off, though.
