Both of those will try to use the pcspkr, you may need to load the module...
sudo modprobe pcspkr
More than that, the pcspkr driver module is frequently blacklisted in *buntu. Apparently people don't want pc speaker beeps any more. I found this out whilst I was googling for a solution. Lots of info on pcspkr driver being blacklisted and what to do to remove it if you google it.
