I do this with pepper and tomato seeds. At least 2 hours of soaking seems to be a good thing. For stubborn/old seeds, a presoak in some kind of "tea" can be helpful. Some recipes have been posted in the past here at TV.
Absolutely do not soak bean seeds as they will burst/split or rot. I dump some in my hand, spritz them with a spray bottle of water and then plant them.
