On older Mac one beep for username two beeps for password and three beeps to indicate that startup is proceeding.
On my 2015 MacBookAir it actually says username, password and incorrect password. The three beeps occasionally still do occur. So at some point apple decided they could put a sound file in that does more than beep for the File Vault 2 pre-boot login prompts.
