If I type "xset -b" to disable the bell, suspend my laptop (with
Fn-F1), and resume, the bell is no longer disabled and it makes
a horrible sound.

using Ubuntu 10.04 I see a similar problem with keyboard & mouse values
configured by xset being lost after a resume or chvt.  I've worked
around that lossage by using the desktop Preferences menu to get the
behavior I want, so maybe this set of bug reports is due to the desktop
preferences being reapplied in circumstance where they weren't
previously (at least in Ubuntu 8.04 & 6.06).

Carl Schaefer writes ("Bug#582566: X values lost"):

Firstly, next time, please do not spam your followup to every one of
the merged bugs.

Secondly, no, that is not the cause, because I experience the problem
on a system which does not have Gnome installed and which therefore
does not run any of the Gnome desktop preferences stuff.  It's an X
server problem.

thanks

This problem still occurs in sid; the sound is less horrible but
still very loud. Note that now I'm using the nouveau driver.
