It's just a quick thought, and may not be relevant at all, but ...
If you have a tail on the mysql log file that is doing something with blobs
(binary objects), sometimes the bell character turns up and causes your
system to beep. It worried me untill I realised what was happening.
May not be much help, sorry.

Subject: tty beeps uncontrollably when hitting <CR> after mysqld
>Description:
This happens whether launching mysqld directly or safe_mysqld.
Following
the instructions carefully (with the & backgrounder at the end), I
get:
/usr/local/libexec/mysqld: ready for connections
but the prompt does not return. If you then hit ENTER on your
keyboard,
it begins to beep uncontrollably (using Win2K Telnet). Quitting ALL
appli-
cations doesn't even fix it, and Restart will not work. I'm forced
to
power down my PC or else annoy everyone else in the entire building!
Perhaps the daemon isn't backgrounding properly.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Unknown. I'm hoping it doesn't present problems when I put it into
my startup script.
