What do the sounds mean when a boarding pass is scanned at gate?

I've noticed that when the GA scans the boarding passes as you are boarding the plane, the sound that the scanner makes is not the same for everyone. My best guess is that it is used to designate people with status, but I haven't been able to confirm that. Does anyone know what the different sounds mean?
