Noise from sow bearable around home (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oink

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

'noise' is the definition.
(I know that oink is a type of noise)

'sow bearable around home' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'around' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is present in the answer.
'home' could be 'in' ('he's home' can mean 'he's in') and 'in' is located in the answer.
A single letter 'k' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for oink that I've seen before include "Noise a pig makes" , "Pig's grunt" , "Cartoon sound of pig" , "Piggish noise" , "grunting sound" .)
