My guess would be that MacOS 9.2 is trying to access the sound chip registers which
isn't implemented in QEMU for the moment (I have a separate screamer branch
available, but it's not ready for primetime yet). In theory they shouldn't be
accessed at all because the sound device isn't present in the OpenBIOS device tree,
but this is all fairly old stuff.
Does implementing the sound registers using a dummy device help at all?
Nope. OS 9 loops earlier (little black/white disk spinning).
Thanks,

Hmmm that's annoying. Another one to add to the TODO list then...
