This:

The following enumerates events for me:

$ sudo stap -L 'process("/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64").mark("*")'
process("/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64").mark("alsa_no_frames") $arg1:long
process("/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64").mark("alsa_pollout") $arg1:long $arg=
2:long
process("/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64").mark("alsa_read_zero") $arg1:long
=2E..

You can also use /usr/share/systemtap/tapset/qemu-system-x86_64.stp.
I'm running Fedora 24 with qemu-system-x86 2.6.0-5.fc24 and SystemTap
3.0-3.fc24.

When SystemTap is used the QEMU monitor interface does nothing.
