From xset(1):
       b       The b option controls bell volume, pitch and dura­
               tion.
       ...

Don't know if that's what you're looking for or not.  If you don't want
to call xset repeatedly from your Perl script, you could look at the
source for xset to find out what it's doing.

Hope this helps.
