I doubt if it is the brushes causing this.
Very unlikely that both sets will go at the same time.
Check all the pipes are clear - I would think there is a blockage somewhere.
Is there good vac with no pipes on? Then connect a pipe and check, carry on until you lose vac.
Some times if you hold a pipe on back to front it will clear.
Inspect the insides of the tool carefully. I have found hair grips can jam and build up rubbish.
