29 Fighting way through low forms of life (4,7)
Could this be a (5,7) answer? ROUGH PASSAGE (fighting way through)
ROUGH: low
PASS: forms (pas)(s)
AGE: life
I know. I'm grabbing at straws, but this one is vexing.

Would 26 happen to be Ted in reference to Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure? Don't know what that has to do with "other sound", just a guess.
