I don't know about this particular effect, but there are some.
Scientists in the lab have used sound feedback to cause a brain storm which leads to OBE (out of body) experiences. But it requires the use of brain monitoring equipment to aid in picking the right frequency to cause the feedback.
I definitely believe that split-sound effects (like voice in one ear and music in the other) can cause unusual states of mind. It's not hard to experiment on, either-- you could start by just putting two mono tracks in a sound editor.
As for white noise etc. etc. I believe there are in fact studies that it affects mood.
--edit-- the following doesn't actually use sound, but current. Same principle, though:
