Problem description:
Some of the buttons on my remote control have stopped working when watching a movie since I went from Kodi 15.3 to 17.3. The ones I know that stopped working are Play, Pause, and Stop. FastForward and SkipNext are still working.

To reproduce the problem:
1. Start kodi
2. Select a movie to play
3. Start any movie
4. Push Play, Pause, or Stop. None of them work.
5. I pushed SkipNext once, then Alt-F4 to kill Kodi.

I have logging on for kodi. Looking at the log, kodi does not even see the Play, Pause, or Stop buttons when pushed. I have included the log file here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25108116/

I have not (to my knowledge) messed with any keymaps.

The /etc/lirc/lircd.conf file is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25108050/

Here's some dmesg info:
