System Beep!!!

I have a program which calls the system beep when there is an error. The beeping sound is barely audible on the PC. I got to keep very close to the PC to hear the sound. I'd like it to be louder. There are two speakers connected to the PC. I'd like to make the system beep audible via the speakers. But there is no sound from the Speakers. How can I tune up the beeping sound, or make the sound go through to the speaker so that I can hear anywhere in my small office room? I hon't have much background on Solaris 8/9. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
 
I never saw a "Volume" with beep...

Im just thinking about a workaround: if you know what the application is doing when it find's an error, you could substitute the executable with a script executing somathing like
audioplay -v volume audiofile.au
