It still turns freely, but it seems I shouldn't have to tighten it down so hard and I don't remember this happening before.
Sometimes headsets need a thin stem spacer (ie: 1-2mm) inserted under the top cap/cup of the headset itself. It's not specific to CK. You can pick up the phone and call them to verify.
