How do I get ^G to beep in my internal speaker ?

What I did to automate the process is add it to the installation of the 
alsa sound module for my card (snd-ali5451) by editing /etc/modprobe.conf

install snd-ali5451 { /usr/sbin/alsactl restore 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; 
}; { /sbin/modprobe pcspkr >/dev/null 2>&1 : ; }; /sbin/modprobe 
--ignore-install snd-ali5451

Try the same addition to whatever the install line is for your sound 
card to enable the speaker sound at boot.
