Airbus Static/Not Static Question

Just beneath the FO's window there is a small triangle with a hole in the middle. The same is also found at (as far as I know) 5 other locations (on the 319 at least) along the length of the fuselage. My question is this....what is it/what does it do?

We found it half covered with speed tape during a walk around this afternoon and called an engineer; as it looks like a static port of some kind. (I know it is not one of the 6 main static inputs though) He was unable to tell us what it was and simply removed the tape and sent us on our way. Fair enough, but now I'm curious.

I have tried to attach a picture below.
