Weird. Here's some of my thoughts.
Things It Could Be:
@ Something rubbing on the right axle or other rotating part in the drivetrain. As many times as the problem has been looked at, this may belong in the PBNP section.
@ Brakes or e-brake. E-brake on that side could be a little "tight" or warped. Foreign object in the drum or eccentricity. Glaze on rotor.
@ Differential problem. It can be difficult to tell where sounds are coming from when in the driver's seat. Sound may be coming from more inboard than you think.
Things We Can Rule Out:
@ Tire. Sound would have followed a bad tire.
Possible But Not Probable:
@ Wheel Bearing or Differential Bearing. As osbornsm said, bad bearings usually "growl" constantly in straight-line operation. But bearings can be weird. A cracked race could cause your symptom.
