Your water pipes in your bathtub make a howling noise. When you open the sink faucet it stops or if you wait long enough it stops on its own. How do you solve this problem?

Could be the washer vibrating in the bath faucet/mixer. Over time, washers can degrade and become floppy or develop a rough surface. High pressure water over the surface can act like air past a Clarinet reed. Opening the sink faucet takes the water feed pressure off the bath faucet, stopping the vibration.

Why is your hot water supply kitchen faucet intermittent?

How do you repair water pipe vibration from all sinks?
This condition is caused by "water hammer". It's water pressure fluxuations caused by turning faucet on & off. To fix the problem, attach (solder?) a length of pipe, as long as possible, but 16-18 inches should suffice, with a cap on the end, installed vertically, with a tee joint, behind the faucet. Anywhere in the feed pipe near the faucet is OK, but the closer the better. When water is brought back up to poressure, a air shock absorber is created, and will solve your water hammer problem.
