What you really want, for true flexability, is something like this:

  /-\ 
 |   |  Enable Visual Beep
  \-/

  /-\                                 +----------------------------+
 |   |  Enable Audio Beep       File: |                            |
  \-/                                 +----------------------------+

This way, you can have audio or visual beeps, or both.
