>From the wiring diagrams it sounds like you have them wired correctly. These are low freq ballasts, how low, the website doesn't say but I would call the help number and ask about teh acoustical resonace problem:

Damn. I don't understand. These things buzz like a bad light out in the 
Wal-Mart parking lot. I don't see how I can be hooking it up wrong. 
There's white, black, and green - those match the power cable; neutral, 
hot, ground. Then there are two blue wires for the bulb: tried both ways 
with no audible difference. The reflector is grounded. I don't know what 
to do at this point.
