cricket / cicada sound again

My car was making this sound before. I replaced the idler pulley, tensioner, and belt 1,000 miles ago and it's been dead quiet since. However, today on my way home, it started up again. I can't imagine an idler pulley going bad that quickly and now I'm leaning toward something else.
Please watch the video and tell me what you think. The portion of the video where you can't hear it, I have my foot on the gas. You have to turn up the sound.

Could be other things such as the alternator, power steering and/or AC pulleys.
