Don't connect the 5v power. All you need are gnd and the two signal leads (rx/tx). Connecting the power can actually damage things... (unlikely, but possible).
I did some testing and it looks like you don't need the power but you do need the ground. I'll update my instructions after I get done trying to fix armbian today.
