I don't know the CLI equivalent. If you click on the volume control 
properties and then highlight the pc speaker choice, echo -e \\007 will 
result in a beep. I messed with the settings a moment ago after the 
posting related to the volume settings.
There is a slide control to set the pc speaker volume on the open volume 
  control.
