Yes, it's quite a long-standing bug and I agree this should be
fixed. The problem is that Pd only updates the DSP graph when you
connect the signal inlet/outlet of a DSP object, not when you
create it. You can also observe this bug with [env~], for example:
create a new [env~] object and connect the message outlet to a
[print] - it won't print anything because no signal inlet/outlet
was involved. Now toggle DSP and it will start printing.</p>
<p>This could be fixed easily inside "<span style=" color:#000000;">canvas_obj()".
I might do a PR.</span></p>

it's neither a bug nor a feature.
the DSP-graph is re-built when the patch is saved, and so the
"pd-dsp-started" is emitted.

how so?
(a [metro] will also send bangs while patching, and yet it is useful in
live-coding contexts.)

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">After a moment of thinking about this, and about the bug with [bang~]
only working after creation when the dsp graph is rebuilt, I must admit
I do find it awkward that certain things in a pd dsp graph only work after
explicitely forcing the dsp grap to be rebuilt by saving the patch.
After all, would anyone be happy with a message object that only works
correctly after having saved a patch? There might be implementations
details I am ignorant of, which prevent other behavior, but as a Pd user
this usefulness does come to certain minds.
looking up for further discussion,
