Jackorain,
I have a very similar sounding issue with my 99 9-3 (160K), that I have yet to pinpoint. I did swap the idler pulley (after around 50k of service) and while the bearings were a bit sloppy, that was not the source of my whine. I also had a power steering pump leak (slow) that was making the serp belt all grimy, but the power steering pump was not the source of my RPM dependant whine either. The pretty much leaves alternator, water pump or tension pulley. I guess I am going to wait until mine starts whinning a little louder.
Best of luck.
Dave
