Mine did that too for a while. Two things:
1) Small Vacuum leak (the vent controls are vacuum actuated)
2) vent/air-flow controls need adjusting --- not seated correctly.
Warning: I'm not a mechanic (if it wasn't obvious by the above description.)
I've have to track down both of the above.
Additional comment: I HATE AUDI VACUUM CONTROLS! Good mechanical/electrical
switches should be more reliable to me -- at least if they break it is an
all-or-nothing deal. I'm not searching for a partially-working-problem.
The most offensive situation was a small vacuum problem. Not noticable
during daily driving in the Front Range (alt. ~5,000 ft.). However,
the heat deciding not to work up to and back from a day's skiing in the
mountains is hard to take!

Mark
