The child would be half faunus/half human. Whether or not the faunus trait would physically manifest would depend on whether or not the faunus trait is dominant over the human trait.

If the human trait is dominant over the faunus trait, they'll look human, but the faunus gene is still there alongside the human gene. Same with if the faunus trait is dominant over the human trait.

It's like how, in real life, if mom has brown eyes and dad has blue eyes and the child is born with brown eyes, the gene for blue eyes is still in the child, despite the brown eyes being the trait that manifested. When that child grows up and has their own child with someone who carries the gene for blue eyes, regardless of whether or not their spouse actually has blue eyes, it's possible that their child could be born with blue eyes.
