That bleed off over time is normal. All cylinders will drift a certain amount anyway. As for which way it is or isn't working has to with the control valve in most cases, usually a check valve. In some cases I've seen a hose collapse inside and block the flow too. Since both sides are tied together all it takes is one to get blocked.
