Ghostly noise from heating vent!

I've noticed during this cold spell that, until the heating warms up, I'm getting a very low, melancholic whistle from the central heating vent.

 

It's the sort of noise that should accompany the tumbleweed icon or that you'd make in a scary situation to scare other people. Does that make sense?

 

Anyone else getting this?

My BOV does this, it's quite eerie late at night :)

 

It only happens when the car is cold, light throttle and just coming on boost (0-0.1 bar or so)

 

Maybe it's because I'm easier on the throttle when its cold, I suppose when it's hot I give it more stick so it's boosting quicker and doesn't linger around that point, when its cold, I try to keep it off boost for the first few miles.
