Long ago on some OS I timed beeps and noticed that a single beep  
returned right away.  I inferred that, for a single beep, it simply  
started the beep.  So I am surprised.

However, there was a bug (1690) with 2 or more beeps and perhaps the  
fix has caused the beep command to wait for the beep.  It is not  
marked fixed, though.

What OS?
