After Googling the systemd daemon reload, I did that. So with the only
addition to my backend service being Type=notify, the backend (which was
working fine) now seems to be going crazy.

The frontend loads and then every few minutes tosses a lost connection
mythcontext message. So, like right now I'm recording Seth Myers and so far
it's about 6 different files as the backend keeps failing. A lot of
connection closed messages in the mythbackend log.
