Do you have any other x-terminal-emulator installed? I tried in
xfce-terminal and it doesn't beep. Perhaps there's an xset setting to
allow audible beeps. Look at the xset man page, especially the -b
option.
Unfortunatly for you, the computer that I'm directly attached to me is
on the floor below (monitor, keyboard, and mouse cables run through the
floor) so I can only hear the beep if the room is quiet. It is noisy
right now. Perhaps you will have some luck.
You could try the GUI interface to xset; something like gtkxset or
gxset.
