ok you have the module loaded....well done now
2) are you allowed to install alsa-utils which will give you the alsamixer command?
3) speaking of which....if this is some kind of media server
are you using a low latency kernel?
are you using alsa / pulseaudio / jack / OSS etc ?
4) do you have a intel sound card by any chance?
show us your output to
aplay -l
aplay -L (as well pls....proves if you are using PA)
#################
Leaping ahead, it appears that
a you need the module
b you need the alsamixer control enabled and volume raised BUT
c some sound software may be disabling the beep such as PA
we can get around that but we need to eliminate your alsamixer first pls
#############
leaping ahead (2)
pretend you see intel as the analog output device then
pretending you have checked your bios settings have not disabled beep as per Dman58 request you may like to read this thread

##############
leaping ahead you need to install x11-xkb-utils which will give you a bell command called xkbbell
run it and report if you hear the bell.....if you do....don't do below
if you don't try below
Quote:
Load the module pcspkr (like you already did via /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf)
Remove the package pulseaudio-module-x11 (that seems to absorb all XBell events)
Put options snd-hda-intel beep_mode=2 into /etc/modprobe.d/enable-beep.conf (you only need that case you own a system with an intel sound chip like my Latitude E6420). Unmute the speaker in alsamixer after that.

NOTE that instruction needs edit....if it needs to be done your line changes to
snd_hda_intel beep_mode=2
