The interesting part is that, IIRC, on my old R31 one of Master and PCM
covered both beeper and ‘general audio’, while the other managed only
the ‘general audio’, so I could set the two in a way that would put the
relative volumes to a sane proportions.

On X41 Tablet, the only way to affect beeper
volume seems to be through the hardware mixer. :o|
