New noise driving me insane.

Hello!
Since patch 3.1 I've been experiencing a very loud and noisy sound when I'm playing WoW. It's a kind of "woosh" sound, with a hint of metallic to it. There's also another sound that sounds like it but a bit lower, and always comes after or right before.
I explained my problem to my guild friends in ventrilo and he answered "Yeah, that's the new aggro sound" and I thought yeah that's logical, since I only hear it when I'm on my hunter or my warlock while soloing.
I started to search through my sound options and my interface options, but I could not find anything. I would very much like to find the source of this sound and shove it so far up into the sun that it explodes from time and space.
Please help me! I'm going
insane!
Edit: Looking at omen, I discover noise #1 when I get close to 100% aggro. Noise #2 pops up when I actually over aggro my pet.
Can't find the setting. Plox halp :(

Check the Omen configuration (right-click the minimap icon, or find it through hitting Esc).
Look under "Warning Message".

I did, and all options are turned off.

Try the "Enable Pet Sounds" option in the "Sound & Voice" menu.

Are you sure its not the new
Consecration
sound effect? I believe it got updated in 3.1.

the sound you're hearing happens when you reach a certain amount of threat on a mob
this is not a third party add-on and was added in 3.1

Yeah, this fits perfectly to the sound.
More importantly... how does one turn this off?

Credits to the OP indeed, and thanks very much Grimo for bringing this information.
Now my WoW does not sound like a space ship any more. :)

I do apologize for double posting, but I'll consider this as a..
Bump!
I have another dilemma.
After fixing my pet-noise-thingy my mind got me to thinking "hey, perhaps I could do the same with the very irritating and annoying swooshing sound I get when trying to cast spells like Judgement of Light and Arcane Shot when they are on cooldown". I believe most of you know what swooshing sound it is I'm talking about.
I hope you might find an answer for me.

This pretty much solved my problem.
Thanks again, Grimo!
