Does the sound vary with speed? Does the sound vary if you keep a steady speed then down shift to raise the engine rpms?

No, it is not speed-dependent. Pretty steady humming at speeds exceeding 72 mph and you can hear and feel it on the steering wheel.
I have looked through every active sound settings.

At slower speeds, it is serene.

It’s the feel through the steering wheel that confounds me since it isn’t speed dependent. There have been issues with high speed whistling noise that’s caused by a misaligned aero device behind the grill. If it was speed dependent I’d think wheel bearing or bad CV axle. None fit what you describe perfectly. Keep us updated on what the dealer finds.
