If a tree falls...

So I am not a Zen or Koan student but we have all heard the "If a Tree falls..." koan, usually used as a pithy or sarcastic way to dismiss zen/buddhism, and it dawn on me randomly how it can be used when studying Dependent Origination.

Can we use/view this koan as a way of getting us to think about how important the 6 sense bases are in intepreting the world around us and reality?
