Hi,
the tested operating system is an Arch Linux install, since one is on my
old computer and an identical copy of this Arch Linux install is on the
new computer. On the old computer the default beep is an audible beep.
On the new computer the default beep is a very silent click. Both are
using the same settings.
However, I haven't tested xset. Thank you for the pointer. I'm doing it
now.

The room's window is open. To hear anything from the PC speaker I have
to knee down to the opened computer case. What ever I do, I only get a
way to silent click noise.
The bell signals played by grub are very silent, but still loud enough
and not just click noises. FWIW if somebody of you should ever be forced
to migrate from your favourite bootloader to grub, too. There's no need
to configure the configs that generate grub.cfg or to learn how to write
those endless cryptic menu entries. Users are still free to write a
simple and clear grub.cfg.
