Communication! It took no time to meet and know our neighbors. Maybe just bring up that you have a sensitivity to the dryer sheets they use and ask if they would mind switching to something odorless. As for sound, I don't hardly ever notice a dryer sound outside, and perhaps some soft music of your own, white noise machine, etc. would help. I suspect if it weren't for the odors, you probably wouldn't even notice the sound of the dryer; the smell probably just makes it all stand out. Unless you paid big bucks for a premier home lot, we're all on a small patch and there are just somethings that we have to accept.
