I just drilled through the cork with a small 2mm bit and then upped the size until the hole fit snugly over the washers I was using. They take the compression and the cork is just there to stop it moving back-and-forth and rattling. Seems to have worked but I’ll need to take it for a spin to check.
Luckily corks seem to fit quite nicely inside steerer tubes. You could always wrap with masking tape to make it bigger, or sand it down to make it smaller.
