Whoops!  Fell of the list.  Re-send of the below bits to the list is
case it's useful to someone else in the future...

On your system  ~/.mythtv/lircrc is a symlink to ~/.lircrc and your
config seems to reside in ~/.lircrc

On my system ~/.lircrc is a symlink to ~/.mythtv/lircrc:
[mythtv at brivo1 ~]$ ls -l .lircrc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 mythtv mythtv 27 Mar 17 22:47 .lircrc ->
/home/mythtv/.mythtv/lircrc

In short, on my system, the actual config resides in ~/.mythtv/lircrc
and ~/.lircrc is a link to that file -- the reverse of what you
have...
