If the noise stops when you brake it suggests that its linked to the brakes.
Good place to start would be - check the pads are not worn down so thin they have started to delaminating from the backing, have something caught in them, the caliper is not releasing when you release the pedal causing them to drag, distorted pads or disk, badly worn disks not clearing pads.

Hope that lot helps!
