Actually it's if it sounds like a vowel (A/E/I/O/U/Sometimes Y...  Only sometimes.  Stupid Y). Take, for instance, the word honour. Just tru saying, "A Honour." It sounds off, doesn't it? That's because the 'H' is silent, so phonetically it's spelled, "onour," making 'an' the proper variation to place in front of it.

"An Honour." Now, doesn't that sound so much better? :)
