As the noise is slower than what the wheel is turning would possibly lead to a gearbox noise or issue.
Can you duplicate the noise on a lift or axle stands?

Replacing the right axle means new cv joints and the mid-shaft support bearings - so they shouldn't be the cause.
No dust shield on the right.
You said: :"Going into a left hand turn it gets a little louder and stops when I turn right."
Just for kicks, have you tried swapping the right side tires from front to rear to see if it has any effect?
I presume the front bearings were properly greased and the axle nut was properly torqued when you replaced them...

Does the noise seem to follow the rotation of the wheel? - does the speed of the noise follow the speed of the car?
Is it possible something from the front brakes is causing the noise?
Try lifting the right front wheel off the ground and see if the control arm has any 'play' - perhaps the control arm rear bushing is shot allowing some play to cause noise?
Do you have a manual or auto transmission?
