<pre>You were right, Tanu. The error is due to the fact that pulseaudio didn't know
which display to use. The following two lines in .xinitrc work fine:
pactl upload-sample /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/bell.oga x11-bell
pactl load-module module-x11-bell sample=x11-bell display=:0.0
It is pretty clear that the method of having the following lines
### Load something into the sample cache
load-sample-lazy x11-bell /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/bell.oga
### Load X11 bell module
load-module module-x11-bell sample=x11-bell
uncommented in /etc/pulse/default.pa was supposed to work, since those lines
are provided by pulseaudio. Either pulseaudio should be modified so that
uncommenting those lines does work, or else those lines should be changed or
removed. Adding display=:0.0 to the arguments of module-x11-bell would work for
the vast majority of cases.</pre>
