For my case the problem seems in the Boinc (7.6.22) Hw detector (or opencl library).
I have two card and one platform.
Platform 0 Card 0 is the Intel Card
Platform 0 Card 1 is the Nvidia card

Mer 7 Set 02:11:47 2016 | | OpenCL: NVIDIA GPU 0: GeForce GT 750M (driver version 10.10.13 310.42.25f01, device version OpenCL 1.2, 2048MB, 2048MB available, 178 GFLOPS peak)
Mer 7 Set 02:11:47 2016 | | OpenCL: Intel GPU 0: Iris Pro (driver version 1.2(Aug 29 2016 22:20:39), device version OpenCL 1.2, 1536MB, 1536MB available, 384 GFLOPS peak)

And in the file coproc_info.xml I have device_num 0 for all two cards:

<nvidia_opencl>
<name>GeForce GT 750M</name>
<vendor>NVIDIA</vendor>
<device_num>0</device_num>
</nvidia_opencl>

<intel_gpu_opencl>
<name>Iris Pro</name>
<vendor>Intel</vendor>
<device_num>0</device_num>
</intel_gpu_opencl>

all two card is detected as device 0, and boinc start: "milkyway_1.37_x86_64-apple-darwin__opencl_nvidia_101" passing the params "-device 0" instead of "-device 1"

I try to start manually apple-darwin__opencl_nvidia_101 passing -device 1 and it works.

Same problem with boinc 7.6.33

in my case I think the problem is it use the wrong GPU, intel instead of the nvidia:

EDIT:
boinc pass "device 0" instead of "device 1"

with device 1 it's starts fine (manually)
