This isn't a Word issue... it's a Windows issue.

Howsomever... On many desktop computers, this feature uses the PC's built-in
speaker, not the sound card. You might a) make sure that the PC speaker is
actually functional (some aren't) and connected. You might also take a look
at the BIOS settings and see if perhaps the PC speaker is disabled for some
reason.

Or, if yours *does* go throught the sound card... You might double-click the
Volume control, choose Options - Properties, and enable all of the controls.
In particular, see if you have ones called Aux and/or PC Beep, and make sure
they are not muted/disabled. If you don't have those, or if they don't
affect it, then try each of the ones that you do have.
