NC1 High Speed Mirror Whistle

Today I noticed a somewhat loud and distinctive whistle noise coming from the driver side mirror area that begins right around 100 mph. After stopping, I checked the mirror visually and folded and unfolded it, but the whistle is still present at high (100+ mph) speeds. By contrast, the passenger side mirror is totally silent. Has anyone else experienced this or have any suggestions as to the cause?
 
There are some common fixes for various noises associated with the driver door. You might want to do a search. Here are two TSBs

POSSIBLE CAUSE: There is an improper seal between the door glass and seal. Test drive the vehicle and verify the location of the wind noise, then verify the door glass alignment. Depending where the noise is coming from, you may replace the inner door seal and power mirror assembly, or outer door seal only as needed. 2018 models outside the VIN range do not apply.
