I wish to play a sound when a slow part of analysis in a Jupyter notebook has completed. There are many well-documented ways to do this with the Python kernel in Jupyter (e.g. Jupyter-Beeper). However, the notebook I am working with requires the Jupyter notebook bash kernel.

In a bash console, a noise can be played with

echo ^G

Where ^G is control-G with a special character for control. However, this is not working when I try it in a Jupyter notebook.

How can I play any type of noise in the Jupyter bash kernel, when I am accessing my notebook through a web browser?

Check if the pcspkr module is loaded: `lsmod | grep pcspkr`. If not, as root do `modprobe pcspkr`. Usually it is not loaded, so check /etc/modprobe.d/backlist.conf if it is listed there. – May 12 '20 at 22:28

`echo -e '\a\a\a\a\a'`? – Cyrus May 12 '20 at 22:30
pcspkr appears loaded: `lsmod | grep pcspkr` pcspkr 12718 0 – naglemi May 13 '20 at 00:17
`echo -e '\a\a\a\a\a'` is making no sound either – naglemi May 13 '20 at 00:18
