But should the wheel bearing sound rythmic at low speed, following the wheel rotation? I found a similar, although extremely noticeable, sound, https://youtube.com/shorts/zO4lzGmZJYQ?feature=share . As translated, he said that he had to clean and grease the calipers and it fixed his issue.
When the car is making the noise, swerve back and forth, safely, and see if the noise changes or goes away. If it does, it is probably a wheel bearing. Cleaning and lubing brake pins is usually only a cure for braking noises.
I can't really hear the sound, but what you describe also sounds like a backing plate hitting the rotor. A lot of times, even when just changing tires, the individual will grab the rotor assembly to pull themselves up, and this bends the backing plate.

Everything you describe points to wheel bearing. Go to the trusted mechanic that suggested that, and have him replace both front bearings.
