Yes, and my xterm still beeps - if I make that go away then something
else will beep.

Somebody posted a patch to do a global disable of the speaker some time
back, and I wish that the patch were generally available. The result of
not having the global disable is an office full of beeping computers.

How does this look:

cat 0 >/proc/sys/dev/speaker/beep
