Could be tire noise, could be a bad wheel bearing. The first thing I would try is rotating the tires to see if anything changes.

I have done that and still no change. What else do you think could be the cause of the sound?

I guess you didn't read my previous answer. If you moved the tires and the sound doesn't change, then you have a bearing problem. A wheel bearing is likely but there are other bearings in the transaxle that are also possible. It really needs to be checked by a professional to isolate the cause.
