Just telephone SanDisk Customer Service and they should be able to help you.  And if the player can’t be repaired, it’s covered by warranty and SanDisk likely will send you a replacement (there’s a 1-year warranty in the U.S. on the Clip).

Here’s the contact information I found on the web:

Let us know how it turns out!

Have you tried resetting the device as decribed on page 7 in the Clip User’s Guide?
