doucettom: I had the same Issue (same error messages in the xbmc log).
In my case makemkvcon was looking for the .Makemkv in the homedirectory. Xbmc is running makemkvcon as the linux user "xbmc" so I looked in the the /etc/passwd file:
xbmc:x:999:420::/var/lib/xbmc:/bin/bash
maybe it's enough to copy the .MakeMKV directory to your xbmc home directory mentioned in your /etc/passwd file.
Another way (which I chose) to ensure that the makemkv config files are created in the righ place:
-enable X11 forwarding on your xbmc
-set a password for xbmc user
-login from another linux host to your xbmc: ssh -X xbmc@xbmchost makemkv.
-the MakeMKV gui appears
-register MakeMKV with the betakey
-now every config file should be at the right place
