The stty settings are not maintained unless the port is held open
continuosly.  The three lines above will open and close the port each
time.  Try the following :-

    (   stty
	stty 9600
	stty
    ) < /dev/tty104

Thats in the att universe and assuming Bourne shell syntax.

Should be the same.  Maybe there is something running on the 4.1
system holding the port open.
