Has anyone else seen this or have ideas?

You don't say what kind of car you have, but from what you described, it sounds like bad wheel bearings. Does it sound like a roaring noise? Does the sound get faster as well with the speed of the car? (Kind of like when you put a card in a bike tire to make noise) See if the noise is coming from the front or rear of vehicle. It may also be something as simple as a tire problem. Swap the front and rear tires and see if the noise gets better or changes from front or rear
