That's pretty much what I saw too.  I have irexec launch at login, just 
so I can hit the power key to run a script to kill/restart mythfrontend. 
  My remote would trigger that script (so lirc must be working) but 
mythfrontend wouldn't respond.

This is i386 with a MCE USB remote.

I've still got the machine running myth 0.21-185 and lirc-0.8.3-74 to 
keep the g/f happy.
