You will hear a clicking or taping noise whenever the car is turning in the direction of the bad CV joint. So if your drivers side is bad then you will hear it when turning left. That death click that you hear is only caused by CV joints going bad... you might even be able to feel it through the steering wheel or floorboard. The clicking happens when additional weight transfers from one wheel to another (most often turns) but can happen during accelerating and stopping if quick enough.
