Emerald can only do so much to ensure an outcome.

The reason Pyrrha was able to slice up Penny with her own swords was because the magnetic force generated a continued force, acting directly on the swords.

sound could not achieve the same effect, as it would be moving AROUND the swords, rather than pushing against them. The swords were thrown at her, and came close to hitting her so she had to prepare a powerful roar to deflect them and send them back. It's like a prolonged soundwave funnel. It was powerful (and loud enough) to send them at enoguh force. Don't try to think to hard on this since the animators don't use real word physics.
