Irrratic Idle When Applying Brakes 900

When I'm sitting at a stop light with my foot on the brake, my idle pulses rythmicly between 400 & 1200 RPM. If I reduce pressure on the brake pedal, the pulsing is reduced to about 600 - 1000. If I put the car in neutral, and remove my foot from the brake, the idle is fine.
I'm assuming this is vacuum related... any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.
