I have an MCE remote to control kodi and also some of my own scripts using irexec.

When I press one button that I want to NOT use in kodi, it does run my script but if I am playing a video in kodi it changes audio track.

From my kodi.log (I also noticed that when I press volume down it sees rightctrl?):

Code:
T:384355   debug <general>: LIRC: - NEW 000000008001020b 00 KEY_NUMERIC_POUND devinput-32 (KEY_NUMERIC_POUND)

T:384300   debug <general>: HandleKey: rightbracket (0x29) pressed, window 12005, action is AudioNextLanguage

I have no idea where the rightctrl and rightbracket is coming from, or even why rightbracket changes audio track (there's no rightbracket in /usr/share/kodi/system/keymaps/keyboard.xml)??

Relevant lines from my userdata/Lircmap.xml :

Code:
    <remote device="devinput-32">

        <hash>KEY_NUMERIC_POUND</hash>

    </remote>

edit: I found <hash> key in /usr/share/kodi/system/keymaps/remote.xml.

Code:
<hash>AudioNextLanguage</hash>

So I added

Code:
<keymap>

   <FullscreenVideo>

        <remote>

            <hash>noop</hash>

        </remote>

    </FullscreenVideo>

</keymap>

to $HOME/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/remote.xml and it did stop it from changing audio tracks:

Code:
T:1059582   debug <general>: LIRC: - NEW 000000008001020b 00 KEY_NUMERIC_POUND devinput-32 (KEY_NUMERIC_POUND)

T:1059527   debug <general>: HandleKey: rightbracket (0x29) pressed, window 12005, action is noop

But I'm still curious where it's getting rightbracket from??

probably down at the system level https://www.lirc.org/html/lircd.html
