I thought about the CV joints as the noise is similar, but shouldn't it make
the noise all the time, whether the engine is off or not?  I can brake as
hard as I want while coasting with the engine dead and it will not make the
noise, but if I have the engine running it makes the horrible racket every
time I hit the brakes.

I am going to take David Teitelbaum's suggestion about the deceleration
valves on the throttle plates. If this is the problem, then why does braking
affect it? Like I said, I have limited knowledge in this area so I really
appreciate everyone helping me understand.

The car is also a daily driver and has certainly been driven a lot lately.
Acceleration and braking are fine otherwise, it's weird that this started so
suddenly. Hopefully it's nothing serious, right now it's just embarrassing.
