to check:

*  xine looks in ~/.lircrc not ~/.mythtv/lircrc
Easiest to 
   ln -s ~/.mythtv/lircrc ~/.lircrc

*  look at the xine keymap file ~/.xine/ for a fill list of values to 
use in the config
e.g.
Pause {
        key = space
        modifier = none
}

Use Pause as the config value in lircrc not space

* check if xine was compiled for use with lirc
