I used to have the same problem. My break used to squeak a lot, even when driving.
Now that I got the slotted/drilled rotors and Axxis pads install with sensors last weekend, the breaks are dead silent. and much less break dust.

Could be a caliper hanging up, could be a wheel bearing, could be lots of stuff. You sure it's just a "normal" brake squeak?
