Rather than stream noise over the network, I've generated it locally with either Sox or Chuck. I've since lost the Chuck script, but this is one for Sox:

sox --no-show-progress -c 2 --null synth 3600 brownnoise band -n 1500 499 tremolo 0.05 43 reverb 19 bass -11 treble -1 vol 14dB fade q .01 repeat 9999

Brown noise in Chuck. Adjust the filter cutoff (freq) to your desired comfort level.

  CNoise noise => LPF lpf => dac;
  noise.mode("flip");
  lpf.freq(120);

  while(true) {
   1::second => now;
  }
