Python is a case-sensitive language.  Try:

>>> import winsound
>>> dir(winsound)
['Beep', 'PlaySound', 'SND_ALIAS', 'SND_APPLICATION', 'SND_ASYNC', 'SND_
FILENAME', 'SND_LOOP', 'SND_MEMORY', 'SND_NODEFAULT', 'SND_NOSTOP', 'SND
_NOWAIT', 'SND_PURGE', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__']
>>>

This shows that the function you want is "Beep".  Thus:

winsound.Beep(400,500)

Works just fine!
