Any errors in /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend* ?

Best to enable debug output on mythfrontend.  You might try:

    mythfrontend -v media --loglevel debug -l /tmp/mythout.log

There are various debug subsystems so media might not be the right one, 
or you might need additional subsystem with debug on.  Figure out the 
right ones (or use all) and then start digging to find your trouble area.

mythfrontend -h says to run -v help to get the following options, but 
strangely it wants an X display just to allow the following textual 
output (bug):

    Verbose debug levels.
    Accepts any combination (separated by comma) of:

       all             - ALL available debug output
       audio           - Audio related messages
       channel         - Channel related messages
       chanscan        - Channel Scanning messages
       commflag        - Commercial detection related messages
       database        - Display all SQL commands executed
       decode          - MPEG2Fix Decode messages
       dsmcc           - DSMCC carousel related messages
       dvbcam          - DVB CAM debugging messages
       eit             - EIT related messages
       file            - File and AutoExpire related messages
       frame           - MPEG2Fix frame messages
       general         - General info
       gpu             - GPU Commercial Flagging messages
       gpuaudio        - GPU Audio Processing messages
       gpuvideo        - GPU Video Processing messages
       gui             - GUI related messages
       idle            - System idle messages
       jobqueue        - JobQueue related messages
       libav           - Enables libav debugging
       media           - Media Manager debugging messages
       mheg            - MHEG debugging messages
       most            - Most debug (nodatabase,notimestamp,noextra)
       network         - Network protocol related messages
       none            - NO debug output
       osd             - On-Screen Display related messages
       playback        - Playback related messages
       process         - MPEG2Fix processing messages
       record          - Recording related messages
       refcount        - Reference Count messages
       rplxqueue       - MPEG2Fix Replex Queue messages
       schedule        - Scheduling related messages
       siparser        - Siparser related messages
       socket          - socket debugging messages
       system          - External executable related messages
       timestamp       - Conditional data driven messages
       upnp            - UPnP debugging messages
       vbi             - VBI related messages
       xmltv           - xmltv output and related messages

    The default for this program appears to be: '-v general'

    Most options are additive except for 'none' and 'all'.
    These two are semi-exclusive and take precedence over any
    other options.  However, you may use something like
    '-v none,jobqueue' to receive only JobQueue related messages
    and override the default verbosity level.

    Additive options may also be subtracted from 'all' by
    prefixing them with 'no', so you may use '-v all,nodatabase'
    to view all but database debug messages.

    Some debug levels may not apply to this program.
