The Slackbuilds one seems to be out of date. A current one is located at

I actually tried that before I tried the old version on SBo. The plan
was to update the build... neither version works.
Reading the arch wiki for pc speakers (there's a section on "beep" specifically
too) made it sound just obnoxious enough not to try though (pcspkr kernel module,
udev, limitations)
The udev stuff is only to allow non-root users to use beep. I ran my
tests as root.
Just now tried the pcspkr module (it wasn't loaded before, it is now)
but it didn't change anything.
