Well i got this type of problem too, and after some time, i have already tryed all those hacks and nothing worked.

I think this problem is caused by some type of problem with arduinos which use bad usb_serial converter chips. The solution that i worked out is puting those lines in the beginning of the client.py:

        self.port = Serial()
        self.port.port = self.portAdress
        self.port.baudrate = self.baudrate
        self.port.timeout = self.timeout
        self.port.dsrdtr = False
        self.port.open()
        self.port.setParity(PARITY_NONE)
        self.port.setParity(PARITY_ODD)
        self.port.setParity(PARITY_NONE)
        #with the port open reset the arduino
        self.port.setDTR(True)
        time.sleep(0.5)
        self.port.flushInput()
        self.port.setDTR(False)
        time.sleep(0.5)

I dont know why, but the parity change did the trick, dont remove it..
