I had similar problem when mated Lua with Arduino. Bare opening device as file
works well:

  file_name = '/dev/ttyUSB0'

  comm_read = assert(io.open(file_name, 'r'))
  comm_read:setvbuf('no')
  comm_read:flush()

  comm_write = assert(io.open(file_name, 'w'))
  comm_write:setvbuf('no')
  comm_write:flush()


Or you need some specific features?
