You don't mention what your MF is connected to and how you hear it, speakers, headphones? To me it sounds the same problem as computer noise making it into the audio path, which is a ground loop issue where fluctuations in the power needed causes this noise.
Do you also have it with just the MF powersuply and headphones and nothing else connected? If yes then it might be a defective MF, but if no noise then power suply noise making it into the audio path.
Are you using a balanced audio cable to your audio gear?
