The noise I used for my test is derived from the 32bit quick'n dirty algo, taken from C recipes. The imteresting thing is, that some loops weren't noticeable as such, while other section has some features, that had some sort of tonality, like a squeaking or somebody speaking. I looked with a spectrogram on it but I couldn't spot anything. Maybe the ear processing is highly sensitive to patterns, like the eyes, that could "see" faces in random patterns.
