I spoke with Phcoder (the original author) about this ages ago, and he recommended not actually playing sound with it, but using it with an audio cable between the output device and input device. I assume you'd be able to use it at a much higher speed that way.
Modulation surely works better in cable but I /have/ successfully used spkmodem over air, it was just long ago and I guess neither transmitter nor receiver are tested much so maybe something is broken now..
Sound output from QEMU would be a great test; try -audiodev wav to save straight to a file; ie. digital lossless transmission.
