odd issue with barnyard2 pid files

Hi, I have a number of sensors on which I run snort and barnyard2 all are more or less identically configured (configuration pushed out from by a configuration management system -- puppet). On a couple of the sensors the created pid file is empty? which means that barnyard2 does not get shut down gracefully and I get errors on restart about inconsistent cids. Any ideas what might cause this?
