I may be experiencing something similar.  (I might also be completely 
misunderstanding what to do...)

SD card written with "Debian Image Testing Snapshots, 2014-11-19 BBB Rev C 
(4GB eMMC) Flasher: lxde: x.yG Free" from elinux.org

(i.e. downloaded with curl onto separate computer, decompressed via unxz, 
written to SD via dd if=/path/to/image of=/dev/sdx)

SD card inserted in BBB with power down and all attachments removed.  Boot 
button depressed while 5 v power plug inserted.  Blue power light comes on, 
but nothing else happens.

BBB boots normally when boot button is not depressed.

I have ordered a standard FTDI cable but don't have it yet.
