System bell not working

sudo-make-install · 2019-07-20 08:11:00

Whenever i enter the command below:

$ echo -e \\007

or

$ beep

It doesn't make a sound on my speakers

Can you please help me how to fix/enable this?

Is the module loaded:

lsmod | grep pcspkr

sudo-make-install · 2019-07-20 12:41:21

$ lsmod | grep pcspkr 
pcspkr                 16384  0

Yup!

And the volume for the on-board speaker is up and unmuted? (check alsamixer)

And do you have an onbaord speaker to begin with?
Also: do you actually want to produce a pure tone or just have the TE make "dinggg" on occasions? In the latter case: which TE?
