BuddyPress.org

For future reference –

I tried setting a default value in a multiselect box for all new users.

The member comment link doesn’t redirect immediately to the member’s profile, but it did work when I clicked ‘Save Changes’ in edit profile > even though I didn’t manually edit any content as such.

So my theory (assuming no other fix), is to direct new members to their profiles after registration. Once they’ve saved changes then all should be ok.

I’d still be interested to know more about your solution above…. as well.
