in terms of theory - I'd guess it is  a stick-slip thing, maybe portions 
of the belt are slipping at different instants?
I guess it is the belt itself that radiates the noise, rather than the 
pulleys?
If so, you'd think the sound would vary depending on the length of the 
span and maybe the tightness of the belt - but I've never played around 
with the parameters.

I think most of the belt slip problems I've ever encountered were due to 
worn out pulleys, they were U-pulleys instead of V-pulleys.
