    Well,it's nice to know someone else has heard it. I don't know what it is, and I don't think it is always there. I wondered whether apple had put a sound effect that plays everytime you wake the macbook up.

    I recently installed linux on my macbook - and guess what happens after waking from sleep under linux? The rustling is there. So it's probably a BIOS/EFI thing.
