Because of my eye condition I have photophobia (I find light painful) but I'm sensitive to certain noises too. As you said, clocks ticking is a big one. I was in Tesco yesterday at the self service checkout, and all the machines were talking at once. I couldn't handle it and just had to get outside. That high pitched electrical noise drives me mad too, I have to unplug everything when it gets to me. There's certain pitches in music that I hate as well.
I don't have Asperger's but I've been diagnosed with schizophrenia so there might be some connection?
