I tested `kbdcontrol -b off` on FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE, and it
still did not turn off the beeper. I have also checked
'syscons.c', v. 1.399 ([0]), and foud only one change
concerning keybell:
'if (cold || shutdown_in_progress || !enable_bell)' -
('enable_bell' added, which must be "hw.syscons.bell"
sysctl var), that enables to turn the keybell off globally,
but not for separate vtys.

I tested this again, and it works fine:
`kbdcontrol -b quiet.normal`
`(sleep 2;echo -e "\x07";sleep 2)&`
When, after executing this command, i quickly switch to
another vty, I hear no bell; when I stay on the same vty,
I can hear the bell.

good, found my controller's ID in the latest CVSweb ATA-PCI tree

yes, it does
but, I think, this may produce faster code:
+ } else if (duration && pitch) {
I also found couple more problems:
00.
`kbdcontrol -b 128.800`
`(sleep 2;echo -e "\x07";sleep 2)&`
If I stay on the same vty, I hear 800Hz bell, if I switch
to another vty, I hear ~400Hz bell.
`kbdcontrol -b normal`
`(sleep 2;echo -e "\x07";sleep 2)&`
If I stay on the same vty, I hear normal bell, if I switch
to another vty, I hear a bell with pitch twice as _high_.
01.
`kbdcontrol quiet.115.400` - won't set SC_QUIET_BELL flag
