If that is the case, would it be better to first create a proper implementation of Beep(that doesn't rely on forwarding to conhost. I suppose this should be possible with whatever winmm provides right now) and then use that here?
The trouble with that is layering; it's surely wrong to call winmm or anything audio from kernelbase. It may be that it calls out to a service.
