SUMMARY
I have "Audible Bell" set to "Enable" in "System Bell" of the accessibilty KCM.
If the current Konsole profile's "Terminal bell mode" is set to "System Bell", so to supposedly respect the global option in the accessibility KCM, Konsole doens't play any sound when I run "tput bel".
To the contrary, xterm respects the accessibilty option and an audible bell is played.
As a workardound I have to set "Terminal bell mode"  to "System Notifications" in the current Konsole profile and select an appropriate sound for the bell notification.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Check to have "Audible Bell" set to "Enable" in "System Bell" of the accessibilty kcm.
2. launch Konsole and set "Terminal bell mode" to "System Bell" in the current Konsole profile.
3. write "tput bel" on the prompt

OBSERVED RESULT
No audible bell is being played.

EXPECTED RESULT
An audible bell shoud be playing

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I'm running on Wayland, maybe this is a limitation of Wayland?

It is. It will work as expected with Plasma 6.3 and Qt 6.9
