Created attachment 880757 [details] strace output Since updating to qemu-8.2.0 running the command: qemu-system-m68k -M q800 -serial mon:stdio -m 1000M -drive file=gentoo-17.0.qcow2,format=qcow2 -append "root=/dev/sda1 rw console=ttyS0" -kernel vmlinux Gives the error: ALSA lib /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/alsa-lib-1.2.10-r3/work/alsa-lib-1.2.10/src/pcm/pcm_dmix.c:1000:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave sdl: SDL_OpenAudioDevice for playback failed sdl: Reason: ALSA: Couldn't open audio device: No such file or directory ALSA lib /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/alsa-lib-1.2.10-r3/work/alsa-lib-1.2.10/src/pcm/pcm_dmix.c:1000:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave sdl: SDL_OpenAudioDevice for playback failed sdl: Reason: ALSA: Couldn't open audio device: No such file or directory audio: Could not create a backend for voice `asc.out' Segmentation fault Downgrading back to 8.1.3 solves the issue or as a workaround setting `-audio none` allows it to work as well. To reproduce from a clean stage3 1. set system to ~amd64 2. install qemu-8.2.0 3. Use https://wiki.debian.org/M68k/QemuSystemM68k to create a quick m68k vm to hit the error.
