vbiosd is responsible for restoring the console video mode
when X is shut down or switching VTs.  Since you are using
the driver from nvidia.com you won't get fastreboot so the
console mode will be restored by the BIOS.  Worst problem
here is you may not see messages when Solaris is being
shut down.  If you have VTs enabled they should still work
if you have booted with console=force-text.

Since you see vbiosd fail with force-text I will see what
has changed in 295.06 that could disturb vbiosd.
