I agree. With a premade, strictly audio app like Cakewalk or Digital Performer, it makes sense for audio to be on, but in Pd you have to build or load a program to do anything anyway. But having the option is cool.
I can't get any form of -send "; pd dsp 1" to work from the registry flags. What other messages might I put as arguments for "-send" to test it?

A flag to set DSP to 1 would be nice though. I thought there was one, but I don't see it. Should we put in a feature request?
From the command line:
pd -send "; pd dsp 1"
I use -send a quite a bit to set audio settings because the proper flags don't seem to work (always get 0 (and disabled) channels with -jack in pd-0.39-2).
I use [r pd]--[print] to see what messages the audio dialogs send, then replicate them on the command line with pd -send "; pd ...".
But having said that, I don't often want DSP activated on start-up, for the reasons that Frank mentioned.

i think 80% of pd users do [loadbang] [; pd dsp 1<
