I had the same problem before on a previous distro
with the emitter going to on but this was because I
compiled lirc with headers and not the sources but
since you installed a package this probably doesn't
apply. The only other thing I can think of is to
modprobe lirc_serial and then #lsmod | grep serial and
then #dmesg | grep serial to see if it gives you any errors.
