[DML] AC blows intermittently

["Greg Linstad" <glinstad@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

After working perfectly last year in VIN #6214 (automatic trans), my AC
now blows steadily at idle or coasting at any speed, but rapidly slows
down to almost no air movement upon acceleration. It acts like old
vacuum actuated wipers where going up a steep hill made the wipers stop,
and you had to let off on the gas momentarily so the wipers would start
again. The car runs perfectly, no obvious vacuum leeks or hissing sounds
from the switch area, and no loose or disconnected hoses that I can
find. And as I said before it worked perfectly last year. Additionally,
it now only blows out the armrest vents, not the ones above the radio.
This seems like it is a vacuum related problem, but I'm stumped as to
how too find and fix it. When I first noticed this I did get the center
vents to work by moving the mode switch back and forth between settings,
but now no setting causes them to work.

Any ideas?
