I am not explicitly running an IP v6 network.  My Router hands out IP 
V4, and connects to Internet over IP V4.

The mythbackend is on standard install of Xubuntu 16.04, IP V4 address 
obtained via Router reservation,  mythtv installed from ppa:mythbuntu/30

ifconfig on mythbacked shows:

I have just done a clean install of Xubuntu 16.04 together with just 
mythtv-frontend installed from ppa:mythbuntu/30 on an old laptop, the 
mythbackend is automatically found.

This is output from ifconfig on the laptop:
