Hissing but no steam escaping

I have a whole chicken in the pot. 15 ounce can of broth.

It has pressurized and timer is counting down. But there is a hissing sound that has never occurred before. I can put my hand very near the seal between lid and pot. No steam is escaping. The hiss is coming from the rear but not from the pressure valve or pin.

Any idea?
