Thank you for the suggestions. It did boil down to my remote 
configuration file. My physical remote was programmable as an MCE 
remote. I swapped in the mceusb configuration file and everything is now 
just working.

irw:
000000037ff07bdf 00 KEY_LEFT mceusb
000000037ff07bdf 01 KEY_LEFT mceusb
000000037ff07bdf 02 KEY_LEFT mceusb
000000037ff07bdd 00 KEY_OK mceusb
000000037ff07bdd 01 KEY_OK mceusb
000000037ff07bdd 02 KEY_OK mceusb
000000037ff07bde 00 KEY_RIGHT mceusb
000000037ff07bde 01 KEY_RIGHT mceusb
000000037ff07bde 02 KEY_RIGHT mceusb

I spent some time editing ~/.mythtv/lircrc for Myth and ~/.lircrc for 
mplayer putting in all the new namespace strings and everything is just 
working. Yay!

Although Alec stated the older configuration files are compatible, 
clearly this is not the case. I even tried directly using the Scientific 
Atlanta file without changes. It generated an error on the first section 
of the file. And obviously the rest of it just wasn't working.

Thank you everyone for your help and suggestions.
