Default frog noise under dash

What the heck is that little speaker looking thing under the dash. It's in the black cardboard like cover below the steering column. It's making a sound like a frog croaking. No kidding! Doing it even when the car is off and the key is out of ignition so I'm worried it is draining battery. Any ideas?

I think it's the speaker that dings when your door is open, there might be a short somewhere that's making it make noise all the time

thanks for the idea. I haven't been driving my ti because the driveline needed to be replaced. Just got it in today, went for a test drive, and heard that croaking sound again. I'm going to remove the cover and have a look. I'll keep you posted...
