That's (ofcourse) entirely up to you.

But you asked a driver to play waves and other sounds through the speaker, and 
that are more than beeps. Therefore my answer that a supported soundcard is
the best way to go.

If you only want beeps, the speaker is fine. If you want more, my advice: use
a soundcard.
