I doubt this is the problem, but:

I don't know the option syntax for qemu, but it's conventional for
options that are letters to be introduced by one hyphen, and for
options that are identified by words to be introduced by two,

If qemu follows that convention (and it may not) you'd have to write
something like

> qemu-system-x86_64 -m 4096 --hda devuan.img --boot c --ctrl-grab \

and so forth.
