OK.

I run qemu in xfce4-terminal and don't use wayland.

I run qemu like this:

#!/bin/bash
export WINDOWPATH=${WINDOWPATH:+${WINDOWPATH}:}$WINDOWID
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -display curses \
-full-screen -m 4G -soundhw hda \
-usb -device usb-braille,chardev=char0 -chardev braille,id=char0 \
-drive file=myimage.img,if=virtio

tested with netinst iso as well.
I see no braille output.
MfG.
