Hi!

Have you tried using \newpage instead of \clearpage?

When I want a page break after the TOC, I'll usually just drop a \newpage in just before the first heading like this:

    #+ORG_EXPORT_SETTINGS...
    \newpage
    * First Heading
    ** A Subhead

This seems to work satisfactorily. My understanding is that \newpage is what you use for regular pagebreaks, while \clearpage is for ending a chapter because it flushes out floating elements. This discussion on tex.stackexchange.com /may/ be helpful:

    http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/45609/is-it-wrong-to-use-clearpage-instead-of-newpage

Hope this helps!

(Disclaimer: This advice is worth what you paid for it... ; - )
