The radio commands are well figured out. I have set the audio to
maximum output for the FM chip and maximum gain for the AS3514, but it
is still barely audible. I am almost certain that something is blocking
the audio output from the FM chip. Maybe the init is done right when
the firmware start up and this only enabled something else? DEV_INIT &=
~(1 << 11) seems to have no effect on the radio, there is also a
reference to 70000030 right before this from a log I found:
0392304 0000333c 70000030 R-00000000
0392306 00003344 70000030 W-40000000
0392308 0000334c 70000020 R-40000000
039230b 00003358 70000020 W-40000000

Writing that value to that memory resulted in the screen fading out to
purple. How does clearing bit 11 from the value 0x40000000 result in
0x40000000 from your logs? Or is this the emulator modifying the actual
result?

There is a clock input to the tuner, perhaps it needs to be enabled like
on the AS chip? However, according to the Sanyo specification, it does
not necessarily have to be used.
Overall, it's quite strange that I am able to get correct results from
the Sanyo chip (revision, status, etc), yet audio is very faint.
Perhaps the clock in double as power for amplification?
