The ttyd* devices need Carrier Detect signal to work.

Try using these instead:

cuaa0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.19200"  vt100   on  insecure
cuaa1 "/usr/libexec/getty std.19200"  vt100   on  insecure

ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.19200"  vt100   off insecure
ttyd1 "/usr/libexec/getty std.19200"  vt100   off insecure

Don't forget to 'kill -HUP 1'.
