Package: beep Version: 1.2.2-17 Followup-For: Bug #354694 I can also confirm that the patch from bug #350214 to include evdev (pcspkr) support that was included in release -17 is responsible for the breakage. I can also explain why.
The problem is that the code assumes that /dev/input/event0 is the device for the PC Speaker, which is not necessarily true. For example, on my system event0 is the event device for my keyboard and event1 is the device for the PC Speaker. Instead the code needs to check which device is the proper speaker device (possibly by iterating over the /sys/class/input/input*/name files looking for "PC Speaker" or by parsing /proc/bus/input/devices), and only use an event device if it finds the appropriate device node to use.
