I was also wondering if anyone has had trouble getting the sound to work when compiling the alarm handler on Linux?

I don't know what distro you're using, but we got tripped up by RHEL coming out of the box with the X bell (through the PC speaker) disabled. This affects more than alh of course. It silences anything that is trying to ring the X bell. The fix (for one session) is:

sudo /sbin/modprobe pcspkr

If that solves your problem, see the modprobe man page about how to make it persistent for your system.

Oops. Little cut and paste problem there. I didn't mean to sign
Patrick's name to that.
