[maemo-developers] Make a speaker beep in Python

And of course, as soon as I posted this, I managed the to find
hildon.hildon_play_system_sound(). Sorry for the noise.

But why doesn't gtk.gdk.beep() (aka gdk_beep(), in C) do something
useful? This just means another gratuitous incompatibility with the
non-maemo version of my app...
