No, that definitely looks like a password problem.  The likely reason
for this is that the mythbackend process is looking at a different
mysql.txt file when run as a daemon than when run manually.  Is it being
run under the same user account in both cases?  If not, then you'll need
to copy the ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt across (or symlink it).

HTH,
