All right, money-holder accompanies noise (4,3,5)

I believe the answer is:

safe and sound

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'all right money-holder accompanies' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'noise' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'noise' could be 'sound' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'sound' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for safe and sound that I've seen before include "Appearing secure" , "Quite unharmed" , "Secure and unhurt" , "out of the woods" , "With no harm done, out of danger" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
