This compiles on my machine (10.5.6, by the way) for an MP3 file on my machine because I have version 1.5.1 of the Play Sound application from Microcosm Software installed and I (maybe incorrectly) assumed that you did too.
I am using the latest version 1.6.7.
Tell application "Play Sound" to open file "Donna:Users:bstuder:Library:Sounds:Bloated sack of protoplasm.mp3"
Removing the word "file" compiles but gives error "-1700".
Same on mine, because "file" is required. Adding ".aiff" makes no difference to either.
It wouldn't if the file wasn't called "click.aiff".
The file (click.aiff) is an .aiff. Didn't see "do shell", was it left out on purpose???
It's a normal "tell" statement -- do shell script has nothing to do with this.
The whole purpose of this string was to see if a "do shell" was available to do this. OS 10.5.6.

So what is "click"? Is it an MP3 or AIFF file? If so, you can tell Play Sound to open it:
tell application "Play Sound" to open file "iMac HD:Users:rpoland:Documents:clutter:Sounds:click"
