Could I also say, "A Ben le había despertado la alarma."?
Thank you.

Hola Lynda
Yes, that would also be correct:
A Ben lo había despertado la alarma.
A Ben le había despertado la alarma. (le is also accepted because the rules say you can use the masculine singular indirect pronoun le as a direct object pronoun)
La alarma había despertado a Ben.
Un saludo
