No air from center vents...running out of options!!!

Hi,
I don't get any air whatsoever from my center vents. I checked all the vacuum lines I could see. All my other vents work fine and I do not loose any air flow when my turbo is under boost. I looked at all the posts, removed my radio, kick panel and air ducting I can't seem to pinpoint the problem. The vacuum lines in the engine bay, passanger side by firewall and behind dash 'appear' to be fine. I notice there is a hissing sound coming from inside the dash when the air circulation knob is turned to any of the side vents but darned if I can find the leak...if it is a leak.
I get vacuum for the large hose that goes into the canister by my front passenger side fender also. I keep hearing about putting in a in-line "check valve" but I have no idea what a check valve is or what it would look like.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Norm
