Yes, vmware works under X. but if for example the VmwarePlayer is used, 
youcan start a virtual machine from the command line. Because support 
for serial devices can be activated, even braille displays can work in a 
virtual machine, it should be possible with devices attached via usb 
too. Speech output is no problem at all after a system was installed.

For the installation of an operating system into a virtual machine I'd 
use the possibility for automated setups, thats the easiest and fastest 
way.

qemu is good too, I played with it also. But for example with Windows it 
is much mor slower and less performant than Vmware.
