My MythTV setup has been working very well until today.  When I try to fast
forward, the video frame freezes, the audio gets all jumbled, and then the
mythfrontend hangs.  I see hundreds of messages from the mythfrontend log:

mythtv: could not connect to socket
mythtv: No such file or directory
lirc_init failed for mythtv, see preceding messages

...

That 'audio data lost' message then repeats until I kill mythfrontend. 

What gives?  Nothing in /var/log/messages related to this.  Google turns up a
few hits, some of them with no followup, some with issues that seem
unrelated.  Advice welcome.
