Yes, it should buzz continuously. It buzzes at a frequency of 
70Hz and to let more fuel through the "Duty Cycle" is changed.
The duty cycle is the amount of time the valve is open per cycle;
one cycle consists of one opening and one closing of the valve.

If I remember correctly there's quite a good explanation on how
the frequency valve works  in the Workshop Manual...
I can look up the exact pages tonight if you want.

Good luck,

PS. if the valve is nog functioning properly (staying closed)
the car is running too lean at those times, 
causing your erratic idle.
Most likely culprit is the lambda computer  or its sensors
if you ask me; if it was the RPM-relay you'd loose fuel 
pressure from the tank too.
