Run "irw" and check that pressing PLAY/PAUSE on the remote creates the
"KEY_PLAYPAUSE" message.
Then, remove unneeded lines of your config as follows:
Note. You can remove the "remote = " line if you only have one remote
configured in lircd.conf

begin
prog = mythtv
button = KEY_PLAYPAUSE
config = p
flags = quit
end
