Don't forget that vo can simulate a mouse click, which is usually sufficient. Get vo to what you have to click, then hit vo-cmd-f5 to route the mouse to that spot. Finlly, hit vo-shift-space to click once and see if that does the trick. If not, just use the routing command and physically click the mouse. Harry's suggestion of setting the mouse cursor delay is good as well as it lets you make sure you don't move the pointer if the simulated click fails to work.
