I think you are correct, but the issue is you are hearing the noise on both sides. Is there a history to this? Meaning do you drive this vehicle on a regular basis or are you just working on it?
Here are a couple of guides that will cover this issue:

However, if you are having the noise get quieter when turning then that means the side that you are loading is where the bearing issue is.
So, if you are getting issues on both sides then you may have two hub bearing issues.
Are you able to jack the front end and use a stethoscope on the bearings to find out if they are grinding when you spin them by hand?
