Default Is the horn supposed to sound when I lock the doors?

I downloaded the electrical diagrams from the sticky at the top of this section and was just looking around and wanted to see what the horn circuit looked like. In the diagram, it shows the power coming from the batt., going through the relay, then to a junction connector. I see that is a -ve switched circuit. One path leads off to the combo switch (steering wheel I assume), and another heads off to the door lock control relay.
Now, on my old car, a Ford Taurus, when I pressed the RKE once, the doors would lock, if I did it again within a couple seconds, the horn would also sound at the same time the solenoids clicked.
Are the xB's supposed to do something similar?

The DLCR handles the horn sounding when the Scion security alarm is installed... (and no, it still doesn't "meep" when locking, only when an alarm is triggered).

Our Buick's RKE system does both the lights and horn, as do many other cars' systems. But the OEM xB RKE system just flashes the lights.

Then you don't have the OEM Scion alarm system, do you, Mario?

I've got a really quick way to add a piezo chirp to the locking/unlocking of doors by tapping into the actual door lock motor in the driver's door. cost:~$15

anyone interested in the wiring?
