 None too sure about from python but from a shell prompt:

echo ^G

 should work. You type the control-G (ASCII BEL) at the command line
by first typing control-V (which prevents the CLI interpreter from mangling
the next character) then control-G. This should work from any terminal or
console in just about any unix-like environment.
