[mythtv-users] Mythtv 0.26-1 have to manual restart mythbackend in order to connect

[John]

The recent v0.26 update has done something odd to my setup such that I have to manually restart mythbackend in order for my clients to connect.

What I did after updating:
1) Added the timezone info to mysql per the release notes
2) Deleted ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt and replaced it with an updated config.xml

The problem:
Systemd loads both mysqld and mythbackend along with all my other daemons just fine.  Mythfrontend comes up after lxde loads as usual.  But I get an annoying:

"Could not connect to the master backend server.  Is it running?  Is the IP address set for it in mythtv-set correct?"

My solution is to restart the backend and then everything works as it should.

Questions I cannot answer:
Why do I have to restart mythbackend now in order to maintain normal functionality?
Why does stopping mythbackend take 90 secs?  In the past it tooks 2-3 sec.

NOW!  When I manually stop mythbackend (which takes 90 sec for some reason), and when I exit and reload the frontend, everything is fine.
