Just dropping the weight of you hands onto the bag will give you 3 or more rebounds. As a beginner, hit very lightly, letting just the momentum of a light, small swing move the bag. Punching with force will make it run away from you.
Don't worry about 3 rebounds when punching from the same side. Use 5 rebounds if necessary. You may also find the FOUR STEP PROGRESSION helpful.

Try several different bags on the board to see if it is the board or the bag. If Every bag you try seems "dead", then it is your board. If the other bags jump off the board, then that bag is dead. Or you might try slighlty overfilling it to make it a bit harder and faster. But if you are a beginner, That can be a shock to your hands, and cause control problems.
Good luck and hope this helps.
