I am using mcabber via ssh, and using mcabber bell for sound of incoming message. In windows I used kitty it allows you to set audio file for terminal bell. In linux I still want to hear mcabber incomming messages.

Do you know a terminal emulator that allows you to set audio file for bell or do you know how to activate system bell but just for 1 terminal window?

Please do not advise solutions like using mcabber api and sockets to transfer event to client pc. I want to use ssh bell in this solution, like it was working on windows.

To activate the speaker driver that produce beeps only for current session use the following command in terminal:

 sudo modprobe pcspkr

To disable it again, run:

sudo modprobe -r pcspkr

  • I need audio bell (not speaker) only for one window, not session.
