I've been looking for a while and I couldn't find what I need.

My goal is to write some shell scripts to play songs using the beep command (that means that I really want that old-fashioned buzz).

I've installed the beep program, loaded the module using modprobe pcspkr, commented the blacklist pcspkr in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, and used alsamixer to unmute the beep sound.

Nevertheless, it still didn't work. I found out by running echo -e '\a' that the OS (Ubuntu MATE 18.04) is using some fancy .ogg sound.

So, my question is: what do I have to do to have my beloved beep working as it should?
