Belt noise also occurs as the back of belt rides over smooth pulleys. When the belt / pulley becomes polished, it slides across the pulley making noise.

Sanding the pulley with 80 grit works wonders. Sometimes a new belt will make noise if it has a smooth part number sticker, light sanding fixes that too.
