	System beeps essentially don't work (at least on Linux) and on terminal
servers particularly.

	I wonder if we could instead play a sound with the avmedia backend - of
course, it'd be synchronous and lamer - but then, people using 'Beep'
deserve everything they get I guess ;-)

	At least, that'd be my recommendation.

	Thanks,

		Michael.
