What did you do to set the baud rate? There are many ways to set the baud rate and it is hard to tell if you are using "stty", writing your own software, or doing something else. It is also unclear which operating system version you are using.
Have you found anything helpful in the numerous forum threads related to UARTs? (see https://groups.google.com/forum/embed/?place=forum/beagleboard#!categories/beagleboard/uart ).
