Humming noise behind radio/glove box

Hello, first time poster here. 
 

Today my wives 2005 Lexus GX470 started making a weird humming, compressor like noise every time the car starts up. It happens whether I put the key in the ACC position or turn the car on completely. It goes for about 20-25 seconds and then stops. I turned the radio off and the air and the noise continues. I was hoping to see if anyone has ever dealt with anything similar and what they ended up replacing to solve the issue. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

The next time, open the hood before you start the engine. If there is a serpentine belt that is worn enough, a noise similar to what you describe may occur until the belt warms up.
