Default Rattle/buzz from ashtray

Does anyone else have a buzz/rattle sound from their ashtray?
If I stick some folded paper in the corner it goes away.
Or if I pull the ashtray out completely the sounds goes away.
Before I order a new ashtray (need one anyways) wanted to make sure I don't have the same issue.

Thoughts?

I used to -- plastic / metal rattle especially at highway speed on rough roads. Pull out the circle section in the front, with the square top -- it pops out with a little prying. Turn it over. Underneath where the circle meets the square apply a couple of dabs of silicone caulk or of clear epoxy. Let it dry and pop it back in. That fixed it for me.
