Default wastegate making sound

i just finish installing everything on my car (turbo, dp, exhaust, ic piping, ic, manifold, wastegate, and a vacuum manifold and some hose) and my wastegate is making some nasty sound when i hook up the vacuum hose to the wastegate, if i pull out the vacuum hose it doesnt make that sound anymore. so i was wondering does anybody knows why?
