<button onclick="new Audio('data:audio/wav;base64,UklGRl9vT19XQVZFZm10IBAAAAABAAEAQB8AAEAfAAABAAgAZGF0YU'+Array(1e3).join(123)).play()">Beep</button>

<button onclick="o=(A=new AudioContext()).createOscillator();o.connect(A.destination);o.start(0);setTimeout('o.stop(0)',500)">Boop</button>

Here's the demo !

If you want short and don't care so much about the sound, we can save 5 bytes on the Audio version:

<button onclick="new Audio(Array(40).join('data:audio/wav;base64,UklGRl9vT19XQVZFZm10IBAAAAABAAEAQB8AAEAfAAABAAgAZGF0YU')).play()">Beep</button>

great (and weird), but sadly, only works on Opera 12. =(
