Had the same thing happen to my '92 several years ago. The permanent solution is to remove the top of the dash, take out the individual sections of ductwork in the center and clean all the foam out of them. They are a little tight but very flexible so it is not hard. The whole job should take about 90 minutes unless it's 95 degrees out, in which case you want to wait until evening. That way you don't have to mess with the grills and risk breaking that hard plastic. All of the foam is in the center ducts and not around the blower. I guess it quieted the air flow when it was intact.
