Yes. A secretary in another cube took hers apart and scraped around the 
plastic switch with a razor blade. Then she gave me the razor blade. It
helped a little, but I thought the most effective thing I did was to not
screw it back together as tight. It seems to just be a poor fit of the
button on the case.

The other thing I did before this was repeatedly press the button until it
"loosened up". Once simply wasn't enough.
