Roval SLX24 Tubeless Woes

So I'm going through my usually tubeless setup with these wheels which is:

2 layers of stans tape, 21mm
Roval valve stems
Tubeless ready Roval SLX24 wheels, 21mm internal width
Specialized Terra Pro 2bliss ready tires
Stans Race Sealant

I usually tape, insert valve stem, hand tight with washer, tire on, seat with pump, then let sit over night to make sure everything is decent without adding sealant. The, the next day- if all is still holding air I'll add sealant.

Enter these wheels. Roval SLX24, alloy, with this pesky drain hole? Tires setup fine, no air compressor required, inflate up to 40-50psi and then slow leak through this hole right above the valve stem hole.

I currently re-installed the tubes with hope that leaving them inflated overnight will press the tape down and possibly help with any leaks there.

Ideas/Thoughts?
