Edit Reason: Update, marked as solved.

SUMMARY OF THREAD
Symptoms: Laptop (with power bypass connected and battery disconnected) powers immediately on power being plugged in and then turns off after about 3 seconds (i.e. shortly after the display starts). The laptop should not do this. After plugging in the power, the laptop should only power on after pressing the power button. Other symptoms included (1) various kernel messages about voltage problems in connection with CPU and other peripherals (provided over UART) and (2) brief high pitch low volume noise from display or main board (possibly because of insufficient voltages).
Problem: Faulty keyboard.
Solution: Swap keyboard.
Other comments: The Pine Team had sent through a replacement display and keyboard (because of an earlier unrelated postal issue, not their fault and it was very kind of them to send the replacement parts through). I had received it about a week or two ago but only had a chance to look at them today. Swapped over the keyboard this morning and FreeBSD from the eMMC boots without problem!
I'll leave this thread open until I finish swapping over all the parts.
Thanks again for everyone's help!
UPDATE: Finished swapping over all parts. Took a while because I was testing as I swapped parts over. All working now!
