If it's a leak, which it sounds like, it can cause some real problems. Try switching the position of the tubing so that it goes up over your head. If you are already doing that, try hanging the tubing from a bedpost or hook on the wall, to decrease the amount of tension pulling down on the mask. How about moleskin on either side of the mask near the bridge of your nose? Last resort, try a different interface:Mirage Ultra, Profile Lite, or nasal pillows.
