Mine is noticable when running there is a light whine. The sound increases as you turn.

Is it possible that it is (so) quiet because there is no load (pretty much)? Don't know how to put load on PS while the car is up on jack stands...

What if I was to suck out some of the fluid and then turn the wheel, if I can see the fluid bubbling or churning, or fluid coming back from low pressure end, that would mean pump is working...Similar to what happens when PS fluid is low...
