have you tried scuffing everything up with some emery cloth or light sandpaper? it sounds stupid but if there is a glaze on the pads/rotors, they can start making noise. if you use sandpaper, just be sure to not take off too much material, just want to remove the glazing

Sound like you've got an anti-rattle clip rubbing on the rotor. Check to make sure that they are clear of the rotor

Maybe a little grease on the back of the pad where it touches the caliper
