I mean it looks pretty simple to narrow down.

If you disconnect the entire hose assembly from the body does it still whistle? What about if you put your hand partially over the mouth to obstruct the air? If it still whistles it’s in the body. If not, it’s in the hose somewhere.

If the sound is in the hose assembly, start at the far end and remove parts until the sound goes away. If it still whistles with only the hose attached it’s probably something stuck in there. Your handyman, handy neighbor, plumber, or electrician has a tool they can push through there real quick.

I’ve done all of this, still can’t figure it out. I’m a pretty hand person and an avid DIYer. Normally I’d just disassemble the whole thing but I feel for the price I paid for a brand new product, I shouldn’t have to do all that and waste all that time. Appreciate the info though! Once I do get a working one, I’ll keep all this in mind.

Agree it should work out of the box. Just thought a quick fix might have been easier than repacking and schlepping it.
