Recently started with Calabash on iOS.
I have a simple code that does a touch("label marked:'Username'") and then uses keyboard_enter_text to enter the text, but for some reason when I run this via cucumber from command line or without setting breakpoints in Rubymine the code just runs and does not produce the desired result and the touch does not seem to do anything and the keyboard is not activated. I am doing this on a real device, (I have tried various devices).
How ever if I debug the code using ruby mine using breakpoint it produces the desired result.
I have the below setup
$ xcode-select --print-path
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
$ xcodebuild -version
Xcode 6.1.1
Build version 6A2008a
$ calabash-ios version
0.11.4
curl http://:37265/version
{"app_version":"4.3",
"outcome":"SUCCESS",
"app_id":"****",
"simulator_device":"",
"version":"0.11.4",
"app_name":"***",
"iphone_app_emulated_on_ipad":false,

"screen_dimensions":{"scale":2,"width":640,"sample":1,"height":1136},
"iOS_version":"7.1.2",
"system":"iPhone5,2","simulator":""}
I have checked that My App is linked with the correct calabash.framework and that it matches the gem version 0.11.4
When I debug using ruby mine then the steps run successfully (the touch works and the keyboard is activated), how ever when I run from command line or run without breakpoints in Ruby mine, the touch just seems to fail without issuing any warnings or errors. Not sure what is causing it, I have upgraded from Xcode 6.1 to Xcode 6.1.1 and that too did not help.
I have noticed similar issues reported by people in the past, but they have been around older versions of the calabash iOS gem and supposed to have been fixed in 0.11.4
When I run the app in DEBUG mode with DEBUG=1 and HTTP_DEBUG=1 I can see below
Command line run in which touch does not do anything

` As we can see the debug run in Rubymine seems to return information about frame ordinates that are missing in the first run

And for the successful debug run (that activated the touch and the keyboard) at /var/folders/25/9_sb609576jcmgdbqt553ps08n5b5c/T/run_loop20150227-7941-1c6mznp/run_loop.out

The run_loop.out does not seem to give any indication either.
Am I missing something ? Why does the touch not have any effect and not activate the keyboard. Any help is appreciated.
