You have been subscribed to a public bug: This problem happens on Oneiric, running either Unity or Unity 2d. I have not determined what starts the condition but at some point typing on the keyboard causes the pc speaker to 'beep' on keydown and again on debounce. For example, if one wanted to type "exit" in a terminal window, you'd navigate to the window with the mouse, hold the "e" key down until you hear two beeps. One beep happens on initial key down. You'd do this for each letter you type until you have typed in the desired text. This also happens on all key modifiers.
