    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    Turning and non-turning shouldn't affect the engine sound or hum. It sounds more like a wheel bearing.

    I have the same thing, it's not the motor, sounds like tire hum but goes quite when turning. I was guessing wheel bearings also. Thought maybe it was alinement but just got that corrected and didn't go away.
