Could be the openSuse bell issue, see Google for numerous posts on the 
openSuse forums and blogs.

Edit either /etc/inputrc (for system wide but may be overwritten by upgrades) 
or ~/.inputrc (for just your user) and add/uncomment the line:

	set bell-style none

You may also want to blacklist the pc speaker driver.
