Default 2019 model V60: rattle when closing doors

Hi all,
I own the new model V60 T5 Momentum from 2018. I am really happy with the car. However, I notice sometime a strange rattling noise on the outiside close to the front middle of the windshield when I close my doors.
I already found out that must be due to a flap related to the blower. Obviously the over pressure of air in the car when you close the door causes some flaps to rattle. The air tries tofind its way out of the car through the blower. After a couple of minutes the rattle is gone so it looks like some flap(s) have been resetted.
I find it quite annoying as it sounds really cheap but my dealer says it cannot be changed and it is like it is.
Does anybody recognizes this?

Yes, this is EXACTLY what I am experiencing on my 2022 V60 B3 Petrol. Driving me nuts. Missus thinks I'm mad. Going to book in for a check.

Did you get to the bottom of it?!?

Yeah I got the dealer to fix it with their "dampening tape"...seems to have worked but have heard it on maybe 1/2 occasions since. They apparently hadn't seen it before which I find hard to believe. For the most part, it is resolved.
