I'm also using the debian-multimedia.org 0.21 packages (unstable tree)
and having upnp problems.  Mine are weirder.

If I run "tcpdump host 239.255.255.250" on the mythtv server, then
everything works and I can see the mythtv upnp server from other hosts
and get access to music and videos and such.  If I kill the tcpdump
session, then the mythtv upnp server disappears from the network.  I
don't know what could cause that.

This used to work fine for me.  I'm not sure what changed.
