I don't agree with bells or auditory signals in general because you're putting the onus on someone else to hear you and avoid killing you. I prefer to assume most people are too stupid and unaware to hear any kind of signal and ride accordingly.

Occasionally when a pedestrian looks like they're going to cross my path I yell "heads up" but even that's rare.
