I've had issues getting an arduino to work right with PD on my Raspberry Pi. Basically PD won't start up right with the arduino plugged in from the command line without some finesse.
I turn the Pi on, start Jack, then start PD-Extended to open a patch. The patch has a load bang to a comport object with the device name and baud rate. This patch has a the CPU load meter set to print, and the value of several pots set to print through the arduino. The first time the patch will freeze:

Any ideas why it won't load up from the start? I have tried delaying the comport open for a second, with no luck.
Well without seeing the patch, I can only guess: Does the loadbang hit the baud rate or the open first? Make sure you don't send anything to the arduino for a few seconds or you will invoke the bootloader by mistake.
