    Hi Meenu,

    Console.beep() plays the sound of a beep through the console speaker alone. Apart from this in SilverLight you have a plethora of sound capabilities; one of which is using the MediaElement control. So, you could add one of those to your page as shown below.

    XAML:
    <MediaElement x:Name="beeper"></MediaElement>

    C#:
    private void AssignBeep()
    {
      Uri beepUri = new Uri("Project;component/beep.mp3", UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute);
      StreamResourceInfo streamInfo = Application.GetResourceStream(beepUri);
      this.beeper.SetSource(streamInfo.Stream);
      this.beeper.AutoPlay = false;
    }
     
    private void PlayBeep()
    {
      this.beeper.Position = new TimeSpan(0,0,0,0);
      this.beeper.Volume = 1;
      this.beeper.Play();
    }

    Also you can try the SilverSynth.

    Thanks,
    Shinu.
