NSBeep() and AudioServicesPlayAlertSound(kSystemSoundID_UserPreferredAlert) seem to play the same sound. kSystemSoundID_UserPreferredAlert isn't available under Mac Catalyst but it has a value of 0x00001000. The following code works under Mac Catalyst (at least in my tests with macOS 13.4).

AudioServicesPlayAlertSound(0x00001000); // same sound as NSBeep()

You may need to import AudioToolbox.
