Beep when minimised

I have some code attached to the OnTimer event of a form and if certain
criteria is met it triggers DoCmd.Beep. The OnTimer runs every 60 seconds.

The beep seems not to work if the form does not have the focus or if the app
is minimised. How can I make this work?

Thanks in advance.

I don't reproduce that, in a very simple test (form with Timer event set
to execute DoCmd.Beep every two seconds). Are you sure the criteria are
being met? What's the Timer event code look like?
