I experience much the same, depending somewhat on the helmet, but I think it is because the wind is deflected/concentrated across the top of your helmet and its vents. Try ducking down - without lowering your chin/forehead, and see if the sound reduces. Also raise up a little and you will get the wind full in the face shield. I have a half-helmet without top vents that is much quieter than the modular/full-face with vents. Even with the vents closed, the full-face is much noisier.
