First thing is to make sure you're going absolutely straight when you perform this test, so as to sufficiently eliminate torque steer as a contributor.

I think your suspension explanations are reasonable guesses. Do you have any clunking while turning or going over bumps to indicate worn components?

What about a partially sticking caliper? Maybe just enough to only notice when accelerating? Does the car drift to the right while at constant speed?
