Default Hellacious squealing?

Since the local highway dept has started putting down antiskid for the winter, I had been experiencing a hellacious squeals periodically from the wheel area of my Macan Turbo. As soon as I start to roll, it appears. Goes away when I stop, so definitely something with the wheels/brakes etc. Anyone?

Might be a loose rock caught between the pad and the rotor.

My first thought as well. See if someone outside the car can help you locate which wheel the noise is coming from and see if there's a bit of debris you can dislodge there.

It's odd… Stepping on the brakes does not changes anything… pitch or occurrence. Turning the steering wheel doesn't effect it either. Noise speeds up when you pick up speed… Called dealer. They said this is a common issue with Cayennes in our area… Nothing like a $90k car that makes people turn their heads… and not in a good way!
