clicking computer noise with carbon fork

Hello. I recently bought a Specialized Allez Pro with a carbon fiber fork. When I installed my Sigma Sport computer on the fork, I found that every time the wheel magnet tripped the sensor, the little "click" noise the sensor switch makes was amplified (powerfully!) by the fork. It was really loud! I've had no success isolating the sensor with cut-up inner tubes in between sensor and fork.

This wasn't a problem with my last bike's steel fork. Obviously, the carbon fiber makes a nice resonating chamber, where the steel did not--I never noticed the almost-inaudible sound before.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? And do you have solutions? I don't have another non-SigmaSport computer to try out, so I wonder if other brands don't have the noticeable click.

Thanks for your help.
