Description Helio Chissini de Castro 2015-06-10 00:04:51 UTC 
Same xBell output issue affects rhel 6.6 as well for XLib code

As reference, the code below should be able to output sound:

#include <X11/Xlib.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
Display* dpy = XOpenDisplay(0);
XBell(dpy, 0);
XCloseDisplay(dpy);
}

With updated to current pulseaudio, and edited config files like previous solution works, but is not feasible to major update aside test lab.
