Another way to beep (e.g. on Ubuntu) is to install "beep" from repository and use:
<?php
exec("beep");
?>
ncurses_beep
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.7, PHP 5 < 5.3.0, PECL ncurses >= 1.0.0)

If you want to make the terminal beep on a PHP CLI application without needing the ncurses library, use the following code:
<?php
function cli_beep()
{
echo "\x07";
}
?>
