I don't know if the following is the cause of the clicking but is something you need to be aware of.
The PHONE1 jack of an Obi202 has both the phone1 and phone2 circuits wired to it. The phone1 circuit is on the two centre pins (3 and 4) and the phone2 circuit is on the two adjacent pins (2 and 5). This makes it convenient to connect the Obi's two phone ports to a 2-line phone using a single 4-conductor cable. (Similar to Option 1 in your phone manual.

However if one line of the phone is wired to another "phone line" such as in your case a landline there is the possibility that the landline is also inadvertently wired to one of the OBi's phone circuits. Not only will that cause "strange things", it can also permanently damage the OBi to the extent that its phone circuits no longer work and thus effectively the Obi is no longer a useful device.
The problem can be avoided by either:
1. Using only a 2-conductor cable to connect to the OBi's PHONE1 jack.
or
2. Using only the PHONE2 jack of the OBi. (Either a 2-conductor or a 4-conductor cable is OK as only the centre two pins of that jack are wired to the OBi's internals.)
