Default Whoosh/VSC noise when pulling away for first time after start?

I've got a peculiar issue with my car that's happened for the entire time I've owned it (2 years or so). After starting the car up and pulling away for the first time, and only when going forward, there will be a noise that sounds like the VSC system. It used to be most pronounced in cold weather, but seems to happen in more or less all weather now and has become more of a whoosh. I don't know what it could possibly be, or if it's just a peculiar characteristic to the car. The car has no codes or issues besides that.
