How heavy are the pellet bags? They can't be more than three adults, which the X5 rear air suspension should be able to handle with no complaints. My air compressor is noticeable, but it rarely turns on unless it senses an out of level condition. Usually that is when I'm backing slowly out of my driveway, which is level, and the rear begins to do down the approach to the driveway from my street. If I'm going slowly enough it has time to react and try to level the suspension. Then I hit the street and it stops. Beyond that I never hear it. It sounds about as loud as perhaps your HVAC blower in your house? Pretty quiet, but noticeable.

I'm still thinking a slow leak. throw those arnott bags in and see how if the problem is solved.
