The only portable shell solution would be to use more "\a"s. If you are
using X11, "xset b" can set the duration and pitch of the beep. On a
Linux console, "setterm" does the same.

I can't hear the beep sound using 'echo -e "\a\a\a\a"'.

Maybe this:
for ((i=1;i<=30;i++)); do
echo -e "\a"
sleep .01
