Shouldn't need any break-in as such.
They shouldn't make any noise. You sure you have the primary and secondary shoes in the proper place? Or a piece of hardware or spring maybe not seated properly.

White lube the backing plate where the shoes rub.
After turning a drum/rotor, take soap and water to it.
