Ah yes - good point. This has been just as intermittent for me. Sometime it works, other times not.

Yes - but does it get updated with the kernel? ie If I keep a recent kernel but go back to older system is lircd recent or older?
It doesn't get updated with the kernel.
So, as I said, it works with new kernel / lircd and old system / XBMC, but is problematic with newer system / XBMC. Suggests it's not related to any update that has occurred to lircd / kernel.
