I don't know what would be more tense: hearing the sounds of cracking wood while camping at night, totally exposed to the elements, or the sounds of falling or shifting rock while spelunking. Of course, then there's the possibility of audible sensor alarms going off near your base, alerting you to some monstrous presence coming in (how loud or soft the sound is would depend on how far away the sensor was placed), but far enough so you can prepare defenses. That would still be pretty terrible if you were on a world enshrouded by a fog for most of the day. Many possibilities!
This is a wonderful idea and I support it fully. It'd make the game just that more real when you throw a rock in a cave, and here it's echo as it crashes about.
