I don't use the PC speaker, and I think that it is turned off in the
fedora kernels, so in order to enable it, you will have to compile a
custom kernel.  Or maybe I just have it turned off in my custom
compiles.

It's under device drivers/sound devices in the config menus.  If you
have a stock Fedora kernel installed, do a grep for PCSPKR in the
corresponding config file in /boot to check the status.

I recall that a few years ago the alsa developers were talking about
disabling it by default in alsa as well, so it might also be turned off
in the Fedora package.  You could probably set an option to turn it on
in alsa again if the kernel supports it.

Maybe someone else on the list uses the PC speaker and can confirm that
it works.
