I can remember trying to use it back when I had only the DOS version of POV
and I don't think it caused a sound then either. At that time, I used the PC
speaker for text to speech stuff, awful but fascinating, although I was
never sure if POV-Ray was accessing the speaker or simply not functioning as
intended. I wrote it off as being something meant for certain system
configurations or platforms (Amiga?).
