Default Re: Snubber resistor advice please.

Class X capacitors are supposed by definition to be able to withstand being connected directly across the mains line and neutral indefinitely, without a series resistor; and not fail in such a way as to set fire to anything else.

As far as adding a resistor goes, post hoc, ergo propter hoc applies. If you have a working solution, leave it alone!
