A few more things to look at:
Do you have a warped rotor?
Are the inner tie rod ends tight or sloppy?
Jack up the car and check the treads of the tires when you rotate the wheels. Do they run straight or do they "snake" around? If so, it could be a shifted belt.
If none of those are bad, you could have worn bushings on the upper and/or lower control arms. The guys doing alignment don't always look for those kinds of things.
A long shot is that, if you have a lot of vibration and it feels more vertical, you have one or more bad motor mounts. Front motor mount will do this.
Let us know what you find.
