Systems and methods are described for mitigating vehicle vibration through the control of a variable spring absorber that is part of a powertrain that includes the engine. In some such embodiments, an absorption frequency of the variable spring absorber is tuned in a feed forward manner based at least in part on the current engine speed and a factor indicative of the minimum repeating firing sequence cycle length associated with the current effective firing fraction (which in many implementations may be the denominator of the firing fraction).
