Default Hissing noise

I've noticed the last two times, pulling into my driveway, I shut it off, and when I walk around the pass. side front, I hear this hissing noise, only for a few seconds. I've checked my hoses, no coolant leaks, what could it be?? Is it my turbo maybe

It might if you've been using defrost.

What does the defrost have to do with the a/c? I'm pretty sure this is my problem
