You then need:

- kernel modules for sound,
- the ALSA init script which automatically unmutes boards,
- a userspace application that beeps through ALSA.  I don't know one
off-hand, but it shouldn't be hard to implement.

Ideally we'd have a kernel module which behaves like the pc speaker
driver and uses the sound board to emit sound, but I haven't found one.
That could however also be implemented in userland, as a daemon which
uses uinput to get the beep events, and uses the sound card to beep the.
