There is still a problem with this in 3.3.1! I was about to open a new bug, then found this one.

In the English version of KDE, there are three options for the Konsole bell:
0. System bell
1. System notification
2. Visible bell

If I have selected 0 or 2, this setting is saved when I choose "Save as default" and restored when I open a new Konsole. However, if I choose 1 and save it, it reverts to 0 ("System bell") next time I start Konsole. Even if I edit the config file by hand to include bellmode=1, this reverts to bellmode=0 next time I use Konsole.

Other points:

1. Why is there no "None" option as there was in KDE <= 3.2.3 - I prefer my Konsoles to have no bell sound?

2. I don't think this problem is related to whether you use ARTS or not. I've never used ARTS, and the bell options have always functioned for me in earlier versions of KDE.

3. The options don't do what they say anyway. Choosing "System bell" DOESN'T use the system bell, but uses a KDE system notification for a generic event. Choosing "System notification" does the same, but uses a specific Konsole event (which is new in KDE 3.3.x).
