With his program umlauts appear, the same behavior as Dieters system shows  
but without any beep.

This is still a miracle. I proved the connection of my PC-Speaker to the  
mainboard but it beeps while turning the PC on...

 echo -e '\a'

doesn't beep too ...

I agree but:

_On the other hand:_ as Jochen suggested, with

 set meta-flag on
 set convert-meta off
 set output-meta on
 set input-meta on

in ${HOME}/.inputrc all but one (the beep) latin1-chars appear at the
bash-prompt!

(I already had set meta-flag, output-meta and input-meta but not convert- 
meta)
