Hello,

This is for a WPF (3.5) application.

We have a requirement to produce sounds on an internal speaker (in the case
that no external sound device is available).

I know of Console.Beep(frequency, duration), but I wondered if there is a
better, more controllable way. Basically, the user will be toggling a
(hardware) switch on and off. When it is on, we need to play a tone, and
when it's off, we need to stop playing the tone.

We can use a series of short Beeps, but there will be a gap between each
beep, and the beep will need to run its entire duration (in other words, it
won't stop immediately when the switch is turned off).

Thanks,
WtS
