"I do not dispute that the differential is the source of the noise"

To begin with, that's really your bevel gear assembly, not the front differential which is located inside your transmission. I'd get another opinion from a Volvo dealer tech (preferably a master or expert Volvo tech) as you'ld get a diagnosis from someone who knows the car.

The bevel gear assembly is not rebuildable and another, new from Volvo now costs about $2K plus labor. They fail on AWDs because someone usually runs a tire or 2 that has different runout from the rest, rather than always keeping 4 of the exact same tires on at all time.
