In case of laptop, the soundcard might have a Beep/PC Spkr mixer element that can control it. (The Lenovo X240 does, for example.)
This is also the case with my Yoga 710. I haven't heard the (tty)console speaker beep in years. Just about had a heart attack when it started.
It seems highly likely many kinds of laptops pipe the PC speaker through the main speakers, having a separate speaker just for that is an inefficient use of space (mildly speaking).
My desktop computer doesn't beep because the metal box didn't bring one, and I did not find one to connect. I do not know how to buy one, didn't look at it seriously.
My laptop, however, beeps via the main speakers, and does so very loudly, at least in console mode. It makes me jump the first beep, say when I hit backspace one too much. I found a command to make it beeps much lower, about a year or two ago, but I forgot it.
