From the POV-Ray for Windows Help File (located as first entry when looking for
'sound' in the index).

  1.10.7.2.4.2  Beep

  POV-Ray for Windows can give an audible alert when it has finished a rendering
  job. The sound produced is the WAV file associated with the 'Render Complete'
  event assigned in the 'POV-Ray for Windows' sub-section of the 'Sounds and
  Multimedia' applet in the Windows control panel. As with all other WAV files,
  this only works if you have a sound card. Note also that if the render failed
  or was cancelled, a different sound would be played - see the above control panel
  setting for the list of available sounds.

A reminder about the availability of such settings is also given the first time
the 'render complete' sound is played after a clean install.
