 MythWelcome binds to port 6948, thus making it impossible for MythFrontend
 to bind to that port. This means that{{{mythuitl --message}}} is unable to
 send a message to the frontend.

 Steps to reproduce:

 1. Start MythWelcome
 2. Start MythFrontend from MythWelcome
 3. Run {{{mythutil --message --message_text "Hello World" --timeout 60

 Expected result:
 Seeing "Hello World" on my TV.

 Actual result:
 Output on TV is the same as before, no popup.

 Note: Messaging works as expected if MythWelcome is not running.

 Attached:
 * mythwelcome log file (where we can see it binds to the port)
 * mythfrontend log file (where we can see the port is in use)
 * mythfrontend --version
