The ACA is DC but unregulated. The PSA is regulated. The ACA puts out higher voltage at lighter loads. This mucks up the LED when you use a ACA pedal with a PSA supply.
The problem is outlined here:

Solution is to either mod the pedal like this: http://stinkfoot.se/archives/1019

Or you can just use it along with a pedal designed for the PSA (Boss SDS DDL?) as outlined here: https://reverb.com/ca/item/527381-boss-aca-120g
