#-net user,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:2222-:22;
Why do you forward tcp to port 2222 on the local host?

           hostfwd=[tcp|udp]:[hostaddr]:hostport-[guestaddr]:guestport
               Redirect incoming TCP or UDP connections to the host port
               hostport to the guest IP address guestaddr on guest port
               guestport. If guestaddr is not specified, its value is x.x.x.15
               (default first address given by the built-in DHCP server). By
               specifying hostaddr, the rule can be bound to a specific host
               interface. If no connection type is set, TCP is used. This
               option can be given multiple times.

I use, e.g:
-net user,hostfwd=tcp::5556-:22

#-redir tcp:2222::22;
man qemu-system does not show this option!

           Note: Legacy stand-alone options -tftp, -bootp, -smb and -redir are
           still processed and applied to -net user. Mixing them with the new
           configuration syntax gives undefined results. Their use for new
           applications is discouraged as they will be removed from future
           versions.

# -machine kernel_irqchip=off
Not needed on a fairly recent qemu-system
