Yes, with a little digging, I discovered that the ProscanPLT4311 is 
MIPS-based (Actions 7013-based).

So, why would the Csound5 apps run, but the Csound6 ones not? Are they built 
for different architectures?

I just looked at the log and I'm pretty sure the problem is that the
the device uses a MIPS processor and we only compile for arm.  All of
the libraries would need to be rebuilt with mips to support that
device.

To note: IMO, the vast majority of devices are ARM. There are Android
devices with x86 and Mips, but we haven't been building to support
those.  I suppose we could add additional architectures, but it'd
require some testing (I don't know if there's a MIPS emulator for
Android; if not, we'd need you to test).
