This is getting too long:
To give normal users of beep access to the speaker hardware it needs to
be installed setuid. There are three options:

Add a one-character indent to stop those three lines being
interpreted as a word-wrappable paragraph.
-rwsr-xr-x root:audio = setuid root for all users
-rwsr-xr-- root:audio = setuid root for members of the group "audio"
-rwxr-xr-x root:audio = non-setuid, and unusable for normal users
