I guess it beep? I second the guess, that your Vim/Terminal is unable to
access your clipboard. Please check the detail :version output and try
again with a different register. Also to reproduce, make sure to start
with vim -i NONE -u NONE -N (or use --clean, however that might not be
available on older Vims)
