Tire pressure road noise drone?

I have been doing a little riding today , and have made two trips of about 10 miles round trip today. I gauged my tires, and both were at 20 lbs. I figured I would try 32 in each, and went for another ride, and if it wasn't just me getting more used to the bike, I thought it handled a little better, and even though the roads I was on weren't bumpy, it seemed like I could feel the imperfections in the road. The bike is so quiet, especially with my visor down. I noticed a very faint drone that was almost musical ,that I had not noticed before. Could the added air pressure in my tires be causing this faint drone?
