Yes, on my Surly LHT with the exact same brake as you. It developed after a while, it wasn't there originally. Drove me nuts. I played with toe-in, pads, cleaning rims, cable "leverage", etc., all to no avail. I didn't try the fork mounted cable hanger, but I was pondering it. It wasn't until I ran across a thread somewhere which suggested checking headset adjustment. I tightened my headset a bit, and the shudder was diminished. A bit more, diminished more. One final bit, and it was gone (maybe a quarter turn or so total). Note that the headset wasn't theoretically too loose before (based on bearing play) and I don't think it's too tight now. Still turns smoothly without binding. For what it's worth my headset is a Cane Crake S-3.
