I tried connecting the arduino directly to the Pi's TX/RX pins, but that didn't work (high cpu usage) (yes I connected RX to TX and vice versa). I did not investigate further as I remembered I actually have an original Arduino Nano lying around. The original Arduino seems to work a lot more reliably as pilight receiver.
Interesting issue. I never had issues with fake Arduinos in the past. I tested a few other Arduino clones that I own, and all use the CH340 chip (unfortunately?). I hope I won't run into this issue again in other projects. I'll probably ordersome fake FTDI Nanos.
