That's a great question.  Thanks for asking it. I have fish 2.1.1.  I
thought that using a begin/end block would be the way to do this, but
that is a synatx error.  Then I
put the code into a function, and that didn't work either--not a syntax
error, but it waited for the sleep to finish before showing the prompt
again.  

I found a way to make it work calling fish explicitly:
    fish -c 'sleep 10; and beep' &
I assume that putting the code into its own shell script file would also
work.
