What runlevel are you on with that box? 3 or 5? I don't remember if you 
mentioned it in a prior post or not. If it is coming from the soundcard, 
I would more suspect a program wanting attention more than an actual 
problem. If it is running a GUI (runlevel 5 on Fedora) then I would more 
suspect an application running, and wanting some sort of attention.
