Window sounds a nuisance (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pane

'window' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'sounds a nuisance' is the wordplay.
'sounds' shows a homophone (sound like).
'a nuisance' becomes 'pain' ('pain' can be a synonym of 'nuisance').
'pain' sounds like 'PANE'.

(Other definitions for pane that I've seen before include "Single sheet of glass in a window" , "Piece of glass in window" , "Panel of glass" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
