Another way is to use wsconsctl(8) to modify the bell.* settings. 
(bell.volume is probably a good place to start. Some more details are 
available at http://www.mreriksson.net/faqs/netbsd/#Q31 )

# wsconsctl -a | grep bell
bell.pitch=1500
bell.period=100
bell.volume=50
bell.pitch.default=1500
bell.period.default=100
bell.volume.default=50
#

Good luck!
