in thread sleep in while loop

You may be getting bitten by buffering. Try this: 
$|++; # force auto-flush (see perldoc perlvar)

while (1) {
  if ($cond == 1) {
    print "1\n";
  } else {
    print "2\n";
  }
  sleep 10;
}

    Thanks - buffering was biting my proverbial ***- by the way the code in the loop was not the actual code - sorry to confuse the issue.
