A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Triggering a beep using the default toolkit only works occasionally. This is because the awt is not unlocked/flushed properly.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run test case a few times. beep will only occur intermittently depending on the XToolkit instance cached (See the hashcode of the Toolkit printed out).

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Beep should be heard every time the testcase is run.
ACTUAL -
Beep is not heard every time, only with certain cached instances of the toolkit.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced often.
