Final Fantasy Hacktics

Thanks man, apprecate your work and hopefully I can do a full play through!

So first off, long time lurker, first time poster. I've been watching videos of all these mods and I have been intrigued by SoD it looks like an awesome game and I'm excited to try it after playing through wotl for the 100 time. So after reading a ton on how to put this all together, I finally figured out how to get the bios and patch the rom. Game runs, goes through to the first scene where Connor and family are talking and then goes to a loading screen and the sound freezes, I've let it sit for 10 mins to see if it was just the sound frozen or a bug but I can't get past that loading screen.

I'm using OpenEmu as that has been the only thing that worked on my mac, and inputs, video and sound all look right and work, just not sure if this is common on macs or any suggestions?
