definitely not external speaker.
can't say whether there is an internal speaker it could come
from. source of sound is right beneath the keyboard,
and creating load aka moving an x11 window around produces
funny patterns --> no high tone, it almost disappears,
but just low-volume sound reacting to when I move the
window around.
for a non-hardware-expert this is strange stuff.
