The R-9s through 32s had a "variable load" valve which reset each time the doors opened and closed which is what caused the puff of air. Starting with the R-38s, the load weighing device was changed to a "load sensor" which was always open and didn't have to reset itself hence no more puff of air when the doors closed.
