Might be worth checking the BackendStartCommand and BackendStopCommand:
curl -H Accept:application/json yourBackend:6544/Myth/GetSetting?Key=BackendStartCommand\&HostName=_GLOBAL_
The response from mine is:
{"String": "sudo \/bin\/systemctl start mythtv-backend.service"}
(the backslashes aren't really there)
