Solution: Switch to the QEMU monitor (Ctrl+Alt+2) and type 'c' to continue the VM. To switch back to the VM's display use Ctrl+Alt+1. I checked that it is expected behavior: if (loadvm) { if (load_vmstate(loadvm) < 0) { autostart = 0; } } autostart = 0 means that your VM will be stopped. I'm not sure why -loadvm implies the VM will be stopped, there's already a different command-line option to keep the VM stopped (-S).
