Why do some congregations only make noise at certain occasions of Haman?
Attended a Purim Seudah tonight at a Sephardic shul where most of the attendees are Israeli. They only made noise during three (maybe four?) times Haman's name was mentioned. I am aware of the teshuva saying "no noise", but can't find anything explaining "sometimes." Is there a soource for this concept?

From memory, there are those who only make noise when there is an extension to the name, such as Haman HaAgagi. However, when the name is used alone there is no name.

I thought I read/heard last night that Sephardim only do it for the Haman in Shoshanat Ya'akov.

There are various customs about making noise when Haman is mentioned. Since you mention that it occured more than once, it sounds like the Chabad custom.
While most congregations allow banging each time Haman is mentioned,
others have the custom to do so only when his name is mentioned along
with an accolade, such as “Haman Ha’agagi” or “Haman
Hara”.38 Some only bang when hearing Haman’s name during
the segment which discusses the demise of Haman’s ten
sons.39 Yet others have the custom to do so only at the
first and last mention of Haman in the Megilla,40 or only
those references to Haman which discuss his downfall.41
