Just to be perfectly clear...

Do you mean that you've plugged the speaker into the speaker output on
the motherboard? Which means that it, the speaker, should "beep" at
appropriate times, itself.

Or do you mean that you've taken the motherboard's speaker output and
cabled it up to the sound card's speaker input? Which means that
speaker beeps will come through the sound system just the same as wave
files, and anything else generated by the sound card?

NB: Even if the sound card is part of the motherboard, you might still
have to play with cables.

With some motherboards, there is a speaker output from the sound
card that provides a mono output that drives a speaker. It usually
is controlled by the same control that will drive external speakers.
Plugging in an external speaker normally disables this speaker.
