Question POST beep never plays (my delayed reaction)

[Archon of the Valley]

I built my current PC back in late 2021 and until today, I never really paid attention to the fact that this system never played any POST beep codes whatsoever. Not when I first built it, and not now. It starts up just fine, no issues, but those beeps just do not play no matter what. All I hear are the fans starting to spin and my bulk drive (mechanical HDD) spinning up, but nothing else.

It's not a pressing issue since everything is working fine right now. However, considering the fact that those codes can be helpful in troubleshooting, I'm just curious if anyone knows of a way to see why they're disabled so I can fix the issue. I've been in the UEFI settings from time to time for various reasons but I don't recall ever toggling (or even seeing) anything related to the codes so I'm not sure what's up. I also tried researching this a bit but couldn't find any topics here, or elsewhere, that relate to this issue.

Spoiler: My specs

• Mobo: ASUS Prime B450M-A II
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600g
• RAM: Teamgroup T-Force Vulcan Z DDR4 3200MHz (2x8GB)
• GPU: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3070

Not all MBs come with a beeper built in but most have connection for it and you have to supply one. It's usually just s ingle beep if it passes POST check or multiple in diferent cadence if there is a problem.

I didn't connect a speaker, just my headset, but my previous PCs have always had the built-in speaker for the beep code. That's unfortunate but I really appreciate the info, I guess I'll have to look into getting a speaker for it. Thanks again!
