ble_sdk_app_beacon hangs on sd_app_evt_wait()

[Dr.Obscure]

Trying to run the SDK advertising beacon example: SDK 6.0, S110 7.3.0, device = nRF51822-QFAA(build code: CA/C0) 256kB Flash (rfDuino package) Compiled using gcc-arm-embedded 6.3.1 in FreeBSD, firmware loaded using Bus Blaster v3 in OpenOCD (0.90).

The example compiles and loads fine, but hangs on the sd_app_evt_wait() call. if I comment out the call to sd_app_evt_wait(), the loop runs fine. However, the BLE stack does not appear to run.. no advertisement is transmitted, and no events are generated to trigger the evt_wait.

The only significant change we made to the code was the clock designation in ble_stack_init(): SOFTDEVICE_HANDLER_INIT(NRF_CLOCK_LFCLKSRC_SYNTH_250_PPM, false);

Yeah.. sorry about the messy code display... I posted it to pastebin for easier viewing -> http://pastebin.com/sZSwxPR8

If I understand you are saying that the sd_app_evt_wait() is not necessarily triggered by the BLE, and could just sit and wait while the BLE works unattended..yes? which is fine for now..

Another point is that the LED used by the ADVERTISING_LED_PIN_NO never goes out.. not clear, but though it might be triggered by adv transmit, or other activity..
