Check the level of your power steering fluid. That has a similar whine if your low.

Wouldn't power steering whine when the wheel is turned? This seems to be rpm dependant and wheel position is straight

It could be what he is suggesting so to elimit that, take ur serpentine belt off ,but i dont think thats it but doesn't hurt to try. That sounds similar to a vacuum leak to but just through **** out there like the other guys.
