Remote System Beeps Through Screen

I'm trying to get screen to beep my remote system that is logged into my server at home. For example in IRC and MUDs a pager goes off when I receive personal tells. However this only makes the local system that's running screen beep. I would like to know how to set up screen so that the remote system that I'm logged in from through SSH beeps as well. I hope I'm being clear enough about my question, if not don't hesitate to berate me.
 
What's your SSH Client? In putty for example, there are options you can set under Terminal->Bell
 
I'm using OpenSSH_5.4p1 FreeBSD-20100308. And I'm just looking to receive bells when I'm logged into my server remotely with screen.
 
I figured out when I toggle the visual bell off with Ctrl-a Ctrl-g. It actually activates the audible bell on my remotely connected system. This is what I was looking for. Mystery solved.
