But upsc shows,<BR>
ups.beeper.status: disabled<BR>
after each toggle command<BR>
<BR>
I've tried this via the cgi interface and upscmd.<BR>

Then it never actually worked, it only appeared to work. The driver
was probably assuming the beeper was on at startup and just changing
its internal state when you issued the toggle command without actually
getting that state from the UPS.
Can you check the logs (/var/log/messages or similar, depending on the
distribution you're using) to see if there's any message there
indicating the beeper.toggle command didn't succeed?
