   irxec takes a config. file, not an executable argument (man irexec).

   You want 'irexec --daemon' with the following somewhere in your ~/.lircrc:

# Power Off/Exit
##begin
##prog = mythtv
##button = OFF
##config = Esc
##end
begin
prog = irexec
button = OFF
repeat = 4
config = /usr/local/bin/mythpowerbutton.sh
end
