On Ubuntu, it is possible to set visual and audible beeps separately.  When
I set both, I get the visual beep, but not the audible one.  It's not a
Python issue -- so I should take this thread to Ubuntu -- because I observe
this behavior even when I hit backspace at the beginning of a line in a
terminal.
