Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

when the ac compressor is on and you hear noises this means that the compressor has issues. could be the clutch is slipping and may need to be adjusted. check that the gap is .025 in area. if too big this will make noises.. also check the ac belt and tensioner for proper operation.
if this is not the problem then you may have a bad compressor or low refrigerent oil level. check for oil leaks around the compressor/check for proper charge.
post back how you corrected this.
sound issues are hard to figure out.
