Wheel bearing hub. With the new style bearing/hub asembly most of the time they want make any noise with out a load on them, unless their real bad. When you steer to the left it takes the load off that corner, when your straight ahead or turn right it puts the load on it.

It does sound typically like a wheel bearing. However, if that does not fix it, it'd be a good idea to check your ball joints as well...
