You're correct. Debugging with print statements shows that the
otherwise clause is never being reached. That being said, simply
inserting a Thread.sleep(0) before the data is returned makes the
program behave properly. If I remove that sleep, the client gives back
a malformed packet response. It seems like there's a race condition
with the buffer not being totally full before it's returned, but I
don't know how that could happen.

Thanks,
Travis
