I just got done working with a new tuba student in one of my classes. After everytime he played, I could audibly hear him release the pressure. I asked him if he felt pressure in his nasal cavity while he played and he said yes. I explained to him what his body was doing. And gave him some advice on how to work on relaxing his throat.

Now... what have you done to help correct this problem when you have encountered students doing this in the past?
