Default Sound/Noise when pressing brakes S60 2.5T 2007

Hello again,

as you know this is a great car, so any noise is disturbing...
About 3 months ago a long noise appear allways when pressing and releasing brakes.
I noticed that the noise comes from a little recipient located at driver side, down, beside the radiator. There are some air pipes that are connected to it and to the manifold also.
When I move it the sound increases or decreases, but never disappear.

So, anyone with the same issue/solution?

Thanks

This is a picture of the device (yellow square)

That's the brake vacuum pump. You might have a bad vacuum switch.

Do you notice anything odd like the brakes being hard to press when you first start up in the morning?

No. Brakes work fine always. Just the sound.
Here is a video with the sound. It's not my car, but he noise is exactly the same.
