Ok.

The receiver changes speed as well, I suppose?

mmm... strange.

Normally not, but it might worth trying.

Anyway, have you tried to use setBaudrate() instead of close() and 
creating a new connection?

I can't see why it should make a difference, but I as well can't see why 
your approach is not working, especially as it works if you do it 
manually...

Maybe your target device expects to get something signalled via the 
status lines?
