Well, that backtrace says we're executing code. We're not stuck waiting for a lock, we're in the middle of the execution loop (looking for a TB for PC=0x7ef7557). Your command line hasn't redirected the monitor to the terminal or to a TCP port, so possibly it's just that the GUI has got wedged? Try with '-monitor stdio' and see if that's responsive. I just tried on OSX and for me there's no hang -- the BIOS boots normally, fails to find a valid image on the cdrom and drops into attempting to network-boot, same behaviour with or without -soundhw pcspk.
