Now that’s a philosophical question. “If a mosquito flies where no one can hear does it make a sound?” is much like “If a tree falls in a forest when no one can hear does it make a sound?” Haha
In that case, it depends on if by “buzz” or “sound” you mean the compression waves in the air or if you mean the qualia, or subjective perception, of those compression waves.
It’s kind of a philosophy meme, but “it depends on what you mean by buzz” is why so many philosophy papers start with exhastively defining terms.

Yes, I thought of the “tree in forest” thing too before posting this 😆
