[mythtv] Random Master backend issues since upgrading to v29

I've now had the master backend stop responding a couple of times since
upgrading, mythweb stops responding, Frontends cant playback, theres
nothing of note in the backend logs and system load is normal (I may need
to add extra logging can anyone suggest what logging) and the only fix is
to restart the backend service
