Could it be related to the variable org-mouse-1-follows-link?

Today I added mouse-1 to the keymap that org-ref-cite uses so that might also resolve it for you.

Titus' second question got lost a bit, but does anyone have an answer?

I have the same issue, but was thinking clicking should run org-open-at-point.

I know some other people do get clickable links, so am wondering if
it's a config issue?

The oc-basic processor makes citations look like clickable links (blue, underlined, mouse pointer changes to finger), but when I click on them, nothing happens.  I can only follow a references via `org-open-at-point'.  It would be good to make citations clickable.  I also suggest allowing users to follow links via C-c C-c which currently doesn’t do anything on citations.  The other obvious action that C-c C-c could trigger would be `org-cite-insert'.  Not sure what’s better.
