Okay, I disagree with you all then because in my language (french)
there is two way to pronounce that :
In french, and that word exists and means "problems"
In english, and that is really hard because there is an double voyel
(no-ise) so it's not that good for us.
I let the democracy choose, but here are my two cents.

feel that this naming scheme is most relevant to the player, as
opposed to Tempo or some of the others that have been mentioned.
Noise seems more generic and straight-forward as to what the app is
meant to do.

going this way with Noise because the name should directly show
people what the app does, we should probably rename Geary and Midori
too. And the makers of Empathy, Skype, Spotify, Steam, Firefox,
Opera, Launchpad, Google Plus, Banshee, Clementine should probably
have to start to think about a new name too.

should be significantly better than the old name, if you want to show
the confused users that it was really necessary and useful to make
the change.
