I am having the same issue. When trying to install a distro that needs keyboard input at the boot screen to access it, it doesn't respond until past Wayland/X11. I tried both on my m1 Mac mini with a bluetooth keyboard and with my m1 MacBook Air using the keyboard built in.
You can try to run with:
-device qemu-xhci
-device usb-kbd
And don’t forget to remove -device virtio-keyboard-pci
-device qemu-xhci -device usb-kbd
Thanks that worked!
@kov did you have success with this?
Sorry, yes it works for me as well with a usb keyboard, thanks!
I tried installing Fedora but the keyboard would not respond. After the installation booted automatically I started poking around a bit and it seems if I hold the command key to the right of the spacebar things work as expected. I guess I'm hitting the bug that is mentioned in this page:

By the way, I tried adding a usb kbd instead to see if would make any difference and got this:
qemu-system-aarch64: -device usb-kbd: No 'usb-bus' bus found for device 'usb-kbd'
Is qemu being built without USB or something? The options seem to be there in --help but I have no clue why it doesn't like it.
