Was the indicator green when you last checked? If so, then yes, there's a "leak somewhere". It could be the bleed port on the regulator or a leak in a line downstream from the regulator.
You said you didn't use any appliances, but if the refrigerator was on, even in the electric mode, if the incoming electrical power "flickered", the refrigerator would have switched to gas mode, it could have called for an ignition cycle which would have used propane and dropped the line pressure. Same with the water heater. One thing to check, if you have a propane quick connect for a grill, is the valve behind the quick connect closed? The valves often leak and every "OEM" quick connect has had a valve directly behind it to ensure no leaks. As for "owner mods" to add a quick connect fitting, all bets are off, some install the valve, some don't, some ask, "why a valve, it automatically shuts off when you disconnect from the fitting"....
