Perch 3 - Ckeditor not loading for blocks

I'm having an issue with text areas that use the ckeditor and are included in a block region. I believe this is only happening when there are more than 1 ckeditor in the block. When I add the block to the blocks region, the editors are not instantiated, instead i just get a native textarea with no editor.

What i need to do is to save the page. When the page saves, even if the content is blank, the editors load properly. it seems its only happens when they're added to the page via JS.

This is not a random 1 off thing. it happens every single time without question. I sometime (rarely) get a JS error popup in the Console, but it will still happen silently.

I have included the simplest template example I have that produces the error, although every block template with multiple ckeditors does it.

Any Ideas?

Block Template:

<perch:content id="heading_en" label="Heading English" type="text" suppress="true" />
<perch:content id="heading_fr" label="Heading French" type="text" suppress="true" />
<perch:content id="background_image" type="image" bucket="side_bar_box" label="Heading Side Image" suppress="true" />
<perch:content id="paragraph_en" label="Paragraph English" type="textarea" html="true" editor="ckeditor" suppress="true" bucket="editor" size="m" />
<perch:content id="paragraph_fr" label="Paragraph French" type="textarea" html="true" editor="ckeditor" suppress="true" bucket="editor" size="m" />
<div class="sidebar-box header-text-box" >
<h4 style="background-image:url('<perch:content id="background_image" />')"><perch:if id="lang" match="eq" value="en"><perch:content id="heading_en"/><perch:else /><perch:content id="heading_fr"/></perch:if></h4>
<perch:if id="lang" match="eq" value="en">
    <perch:content id="paragraph_en" html="true" />
<perch:else />
    <perch:content id="paragraph_fr" html="true" />
</perch:if>

</div>
