hello there.
the clicking sounds could be because if tr following reasons
1. there is something called the eustachian tubr. that could be the root of the sound it could be intermittently opening or closing.
2. ear wax
3. jaw movements at the temporo mandibular joint could be causing it and the sound could be transmitted.
suggest you take him to a ENT Specialist and get it checked out.
regards
