I also compiled my own QEMU binary and tried the Commander Keen 4 demo. Don't know about sound, but music works. (I already configured with '--enable-adlib'.)

Does Keen's configuration screen look OK for you? Mine shows some artefacts.

I noticed a very annoying white jitter while playing, but it vanishes, when I turn "SVGA compatibility" in the options menu off on.

Is it hard to fix (for you)?
