[mythtv-users] irexec fails to start on boot

[Robert Dege]

I'm running mythbuntu 14.04.3 LTS (64bit).  LIRC is running with no issues,
but I'm unable to get irexec to run:

# lircd -v && irexec -v
lircd 0.9.0
irexec 0.9.0


# sudo irexec /etc/lirc/lircrc
irexec: could not connect to socket
irexec: No such file or directory


The lircrc config file points to $USER/.lirc/mythtv
# ls -l /etc/lirc/lircrc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Jan 12 20:19 /etc/lirc/lircrc ->
/home/rob/.lirc/mythtv


The only oddity that I notice is that there's two session of lirc running,
with two pid files:
# ps -aef | grep lirc
root      3356     1  0 21:29 ?        00:00:02 /usr/sbin/lircd
--output=/dev/lircd --driver=devinput
--device=phys=usb-0000:00:04.0-1/input1 --listen
--pidfile=/run/lirc/lircd1.pid
root      3358     1  0 21:29 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/lircd
--output=/dev/lircd --driver=devinput
--device=phys=usb-0000:00:04.0-3/input0 --connect=localhost 8765
