Source of 'crickets' noise?

Hi, I have an issue with my 2005 Yaris 1.5L Auto (It's done less than 60k miles) that my mechanic can't replicate (I don't think he took it out long enough/warmed it up enough to induce it happening) and I can't manage to get a good sound recording of, but it sounds like crickets chirping and it's pretty loud.

The noise only seems to happen when the car is stationary and the brakes are applied.

* It happens daily, becoming more frequent as the car warms up.

* If I take my foot off the brake and start rolling forward the noise stops.

* If I pop it into Neutral the noise stops as well. Which leads me to popping it into Neutral at every traffic light as the noise is loud enough to be a little embarrassing (this is an auto so it's unusual to have to do this all the time).

* It does not seem to occur when I'm braking while moving, only a few moments after the car has come to a stop.

* My mechanic thought it might be the fan belt and tightened it, but it didn't help so I've sort of ruled that out.

Does anyone have any diagnostic ideas?
