Muffle (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

deaden

'muffle' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for deaden that I've seen before include "Benumb" , "Muffle (sound)" , "Make weaker or quieter" , "Make numb, deprive of feeling" , "Blunt, numb" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, the Universal, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Irish Independent, the Penny Press and the Newsday.
