My bet is on the belt. With the AC on, it puts more load on the idler pulleys and if you have a bad pulley (or an about-to-go-bad pulley), driving with AC on can really push the bad bearing over the edge. Happened to me recently, though luckily the bearing in the pulley was so shi**y that the balls just self destructed instead of swelling and seizing the bearing.
