I'm only guessing, but I would assume that the system runs continuously and
that you only hear it initially as it has to build up pressure but once you
start running it comes on, but a much lower level (which I don't hear while
riding on mine BTW).

My question now is this ...

Is the constant sound you hear a noisy pump ?
or 
Is the sound you're hearing the constant running of the system trying to
pressurize a system that has a leak ?

It would make sense that if your system was not pressurizing, the system
would run indefinitely (at the normal start up volume level) as it attempts
to build up sufficient pressure, but due to the leak, it would never reach
the shutoff point.

Again - I'm only guessing - anyone else have a better guess ?
