It's normal operation for any adjustment of the delay knob on these to alter the pitch/tempo of the wet signal if there's any present. But you shouldn't have the sample/hold behaviour operational if you're set to the 800mS range (if I'm understanding you correctly here). I'd probably take the pedal to a store and compare it to one they have there, and note any differences in how they function.

Is it a really high-pitched whining sound? How are you powering the pedal, and is the noise still there when you run it on battery power?

Some digital delay circuits can produce high-pitched whining noises when powered from a "switching" type power supply (Godlyke, 1-spot among others).
