I hit this very same problem recently. The beepPitch only applies to the
'beep' sound, which is not played over the sound card (which is able to play
*.wav files). I can't exactly tell how to solve this, because one some
configurations it works, and on others it doesn't, even on the same
platform.

A workaround: use a player object to play a sound file, and change the
playRate. Have a look at the attachment and have fun! (You should add some
sound file to the player yourself).
