overPimpleDyMFoam does not satisfy the mass conservation betwee inlet and outlet

Hello,

I have a very simple test case. It is a 2D cylinder bounded by two fixed wall (top and bottom) and pressure inlet and outlet. The flow is laminar. When starting to move the cylinder periodically (the fluid is initially at rest) in direction of the inlet and outlet i realized by monitoring the mass fluxes at the inlet and the outlet that they are not equal in magnitude. So i was wondering if I have something wrong in the setup or there is an issue in the pressure equation (which should guarantee the mass conservation.

Please find attached the case. I made an Allrun command. Maybe someone can give me a hint what's going wrong. It was testes with the newest version 1806OcilatingCylinderinFluidAtRestSend.tar.gz
