It may not be the fan making "more" noise when you turn on the lights. It may actually be the bulbs making noise. Incandescent bulbs when operating on a dimmer make a high pitched noise - it is the filament vibrating. Try just the lights without the fan and see if you hear anything.

Why does your ceiling fan make noise with the lights OFF and no noise with the lights ON?

What kind of noise: A motor hum? A high-pitched sound? Which lights: the kitchen lights? The ceiling fan light? Sounds like you have your lights on a dimmer and that will cause a high-pitch sound. The noise is motor hum and a "clinking noise" almost like the glass domes are loose (they aren't). The lights I was referring to are the ceiling fan lights. I am not using a dimmer switch. Also, it is a Hunter ceiling fan (I don't know the model. It was a mid-range fan as far as price: $109.00)
