Hi;

The pre-start script in mythtv-backend.conf *should* be making sure
that mysqld is running.

If upstart fails and the command line works, then are the two using
the same config.xml or two files with the same data?

You should see a line in the two backend logs that has the following
text:

      ... Using configuration directory = ???????
