I've actually noticed the exact same thing since my conversion. I'm reaching a bit here, but I seem to recall some discussion somewhere about adding a bit of wax to the undersurface of the cover (overlying the poles when in place) to insulate it. I've not done so, but is that something that would help?

It is non-permanent and won't mess up the pickup yet it will stop the microphonics from happening at least as far as the pickup cover is concerned.
