So I just installed snapshot 20060103. I'm running WinXP SP2.

Before I installed the snapshot, I didn't have that 
...\Apps\.Default\.Default key at all, and the beep apparently still 
worked for CMD. Now, I have this key, and the (Default) entry is set to 
"ding.wav".

CMD.EXE still issues an actual beep (PC-beeper-beep) when I type

   echo ^G   (literal control g)

(This is using CMD's built-in echo).

bash and tcsh now emit a "ding" instead, for the same command (using 
shell builtins).

(I guess I'm wondering if this is to be the expected behavior from now 
on; is there any way now to get bash and tcsh to emit a real beep?)
