SNES games not starting through through Launchox and SNES9x

Hello. I've imported my SNES library and attached SNES9x as the default emulator for all SNES games. When I run any SNES game from LaunchBox, it'll open SNES9x properly, but will not start the game. If I leave SNES9x open or open it separately, and go to File > Load Game and select the ROM, it'll play just fine. Neither SNES9x nor LaunchBox  give any sort of an error or anything, it's just a straight-up black screen.  Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

For what it's worth, I've also got NES and PSP games imported as well - and both launch from LaunchBox into their respective emulators perfectly fine. 

Thanks!

Probably needs a command-line to tell it to actually run the rom, but i dont know what that is off hand. I havent used standalone snes9x in over 10 years at this point.

No, they're all unzipped and actually not even in individual folders, all of the extracted .smc files are listed together in one folder. 

There is a very old guide here.

And do your settings match this image from that video?
