Default Rythmic squeak

I recently discovered a faint rythmic squeak that seems to be coming from the rear driver's side. It increases frequency with speed, and seems to go away when brakes are applied. Since it changes when the brakes are applied, I am guessing it is brake related. However I installed all new Centric rotors and Akebono pads just over 10,000 miles ago. The brakes feel great and work fine. I haven't had time to pull the rear wheel off to inspect. Also not sure if it could be a wheel bearing issue. Any thoughts? 07 RWD with 96,000 on it.I am not sure I would have even noticed it, but the weather here has been strange, so I had the sunroof ad windows open. The sound is very faint, to the point that it is hard to hear, and bird chirping are louder. But it is there, I heard it again today, especially when there are trees or buildings to bounce sound off of while I am driving with stereo off and window down.
