I do this occasionally, but I do use VirtualBox instead of qemu.  I
think performance is way better in VirtualBox.  Additionally, VirtualBox
supports USB pass-through which you can use to natively run a braille
display (or a USB dongle) in the guest OS.  Furthermore, with RDP and
the VirtualBox-specific RDP-client you can also easily send audio
(speech) to a remote client, and also do USB pass-through remotely.  So you
could configure yourself a remotely accessible Windows box that you can fire
up from every linux machine you have access to (if there is sufficient
network connectivity).

P.S.: It would be way cooler to have a BrlAPI driver for JAWS though :-).
Since NVDA uses BRLTTY, I wonder if this is already possible, haven't tried.
