The invention concerns a headrest for a motor vehicle seat, said headrest comprising a support block (1) provided with a padding cushion (2) made of elastically compressible foam, said block being supported by a rigid frame (3) for mounting said headrest at the top of the backrest of said seat, said headrest being equipped with a generator of acoustic waves in the environment of said headrest, the generator comprising at least one plate (6) on which an electrodynamic transducer (7) is provided, said plate being attached to the support block (1) and being arranged to be excited vibrationally by said transducer in order to generate the acoustic waves, the block comprising a support layer (12) arranged on a front surface (11) in front of which the head of the occupant is intended to be, said support layer having a Young's modulus E of less than 40 kPa and an airflow resistivity of less than 5,000 N·m−4·s.
