Are you sure you mean grub and not beep or sox? I would think grub exits after passing control to the running kernel. My machine doesn't have an internal speaker, so I use sox to play a beep. I found that even if a machine has a speaker, it can be hard to hear. I created a custom startup sound for my live CD, but due to some bug I haven't figured out, it doesn't play on boot anymore.

Regarding WP, try wp-cli. My guess is your database wasn't upgraded after doing a WordPress upgrade. If you use wp-cli, you can do everything from new installs to setting up multiple sites from the command line. It's a lot easier than firing up a browser. http://wp-cli.org/

Maybe you could do it with a USB headset. The IAVIT wordpress site,

last night.  Lets see if we can get this working and post it there.
I have howtos on my space on www.iavit.org on how to build a kernel patched
for hardware synths and on how to get grub to play a tune at boot time. The
boot time tune thing is pretty cool because I have a lot of machines in my
office and I can tell which one has finished rebooting by the tune it plays.

PS: I was getting the so-called "white screen of death" from wordpress. I
did everything on the wordpress "How to fix the white screen of death" page
but it didn't help. I finally totally reinstalled.
