Hey Kurt. I'm just getting back to "normal" and going through everything that happened while I was traveling. How are things working for you, now?
Did you go through everything at https://www.freeplaytech.com/support/troubleshooting/ ?
When this (having to hold the power button) happens, it means that the Pi itself is not taking over and "telling" the Freeplay PCB that the operating system is running. This can be caused by several things in software, but if you are using the SD image we provide, then the software should be working.
If the software isn't the issue, then it would likely be one of the pins that connect the Pi to the Freeplay PCB. If there is a bad solder joint or a solder blob that is "bridging" to another pin, that can also cause this problem.
If you could post (or send me) some photos of the solder on the Pi, that might be helpful.
