This, svantana.
My dentist's ultrasonic dental plaque removing tool produces audible squeals reminiscent of analog tuning of an AM radio. That's one possible example of probable nonlinearities (in my gums an teeth) producing detectible audible power from ultrasonic energy transmission. No reference -- it's just what I hear every time I have my teeth cleaned.
Granted an ultrasonic water stream (dental application) has different physical characteristics than an ultrasonic air pressure wave (ultrasound).
