Question "air-leak" sound with breaks

I asked this question like 2 years ago and nobody had any ideas, so hear goes again...

When I put a little presure on my break pedal it makes a "Pffffffffft" sound and if I press harder it goes away. When I only press with bwetween just enough to get the break lights on and up to about 4 pounds of pressure it makes the noise but not when I press on it like I want to stop the car. I can make it make this sound for over a minute if I just keep a little pressure on it. My breaks stop the car in a hurry and the pedal effort is always the same even after making it "pfffffffffffffft" for a long time.

Anybody else have a similar sound? Any explanations?

BTW you can only hear it inside the car, sounds like it is comming from under/behind the dash/pedal assembly area.
