I can't comment on your original post (not enough posts yet); on a tangential note, consider using scoped_lock (if you're not already!), safer than explicit lock/unlock calls...

also one word of caution, flush is expensive, call only when necessary.

std::cout << "asd" << std::flush;

Since cout is buffered, data put to it may not appear immediately on the console (or wherever it may be redirected to). Thus, try flushing the output stream within the thread. E.g.

cout << "asd" << endl;
