With the addition of sudo, I get:

COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME mysqld 79 _mysql 10u unix 0x40bdd8b3f53719a7 0t0 /opt/local/var/run/mysql56/mysqld.sock

but there is still no sock file at that location. As I mentioned earlier, the mysql-error log does show the creation of the sock file on the last line after restarting.

Is there a process that might destroy it after it's created?

That could be p[art of some convoluted explanation, but I think the explanation is MUCH simpler.

Are you relying on the Finder to look in /opt/local/var/run/mysql56/? Don't. It will not show you everything. Use 'ls' instead.
