No "Beep" from PC Speaker

[Kenneth Jacker <khj@be.cs.appstate.edu>]

[sarge; 2.6.8-2-686; KDE; SBL!]

I can't get my PC speaker to "beep" in a "console" or "Konsole"
session ... I guess there are worse problems!  ;-)

Anyway, this,

        $ echo <CNTRL>-v<CNTRL>-g

produces no sound.  Neither does 'xalarm' with the "-alarmaudio beep" option.

I've enabled it via 'alsamixer', checked 'xset' and various KDE "sound
options", but still hear nothing.

Most likely I've turned it off somewhere else, but just don't know where ...

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
