For anyone who finds this bug and wants to disable or change the system beep, here are a few options:

1) System > Preferences > Sound > System Beep > Enable System Beep (check / uncheck)

2) To change the volume / pitch, use `xset b 30 500`. The first number is the volume, in percentage, and the second is the frequency in hertz. See `man xset` for more info.
