It seems crazy to think of a time when people might buy just a few lightbulbs in their lives, but it'd be great for reducing landfill.

Oh sorry, I just noticed you said you didn't use the fluorescent bulbs. Mine don't seem to make a buzzing noise, but I guess, if you are using sensitive recording equipment, it probably picks up the slightest noise.
