It's super annoying, but what is actually coming from oscparse is a "symbol" not a float. In Pd there is currently no way to re-cast a symbol-float atom back to what it looks like, so instead you'll have to manually create one of these "symbol" floats to compare against, which you can do with a message through makefilename like this: [42( | [makefilename %d] | into the right inlet of your 'route'. This will route on the "symbol" 42. I submitted a patch to Miller to allow [f] to cast those symbol-floats back to floats (since there are now 3 different ways to accidentally or purposely create a symbol-float) a while back but I think he thinks there is a better way of handling this situation.
