Appreciate the notice Warner.  :)

Yes, I use it on various devices:
- as a clock signal to indicate the time, different pitch each 1/4 &
hour (aka a chiming clock, very useful when busy)
- advice when a box has completed booting
- advice when snort (& others) thinks there's a problem
using different duration and pitch.  I'm Pavlovian trained.

audio/beep and audio/yell are good friends that need their benefactor Mr
Speaker to remain alive, please.  ;)

I'm rarely current but always stable (12.1), happy to test (on: Haswell,
Nehalem, Nehemiah (32bit))
Regards.
