The service manager that heard the sounds agreed they aren't normal.
I have this exact same issue.
Not load based, but RPM based. I can have the car in neutral and rev it up to 5000rpm or so and it'll start ticking like crazy. Almost sounds like it's coming from under the steering area or inside the dash somewhere... definitely not normal.

It doesn't always do it, and seems to go away after I peg the throttle a few times and wind it up to redline. I have a service appointment this week and will ask them to check it out.
