I've had the same issue using Park Tool Grease. Using the appropriate sized seatpost (unless it got reamed bigger somehow, or the post is abnormally small) and I clamping the post to the point that I'm afraid of permanently bending the ears and I still see a little slippage, so I'd love to know the answer as well.
