1`make ... && echo ^G` perhaps? (See: [In a bash script/command how can I make a PC beep noise, or play a sound file?](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1143386/in-a-bash-script-command-how-can-i-make-a-pc-beep-noise-or-play-a-sound-file)) – Kninnug Nov 28 '13 at 23:39

You probably need to look at this solution: http://askubuntu.com/questions/19906/beep-in-shell-script-not-working – Alexander Myshov Nov 29 '13 at 00:36

This has nothing to do with makefile itself. makefiles and make, are just tools designed to build files ("targets" in make parlance) with shell commands ("recipes") in an efficient way. A "phony" target such as all should not have a recipe that builds anything, but it can very well play a sound:
all: list of targets you want to build
tab play sound in your shell
In this way, the sound command will play only after all the targets listed have updated successfully.
