Like most car owners, when I initially heard the sound I rolled the windows down to hear it better. No deadening material involved at all. I don't really like to think about the people I drive by either on the sidewalk, in a parking lot, or driving with their windows down hearing my clutch that loudly. Like I said though, no mechanical issue, then oh well. The occasional rattle from it when pushing in the clutch pedal in 1st is more annoying than the idle noise.
