ubuntu 18.04lts upgraded from mythbuntu 16.04lts
kernel 4.15
lirc 10.0-2
Remote doesn't work in mythtv or with irw unless during boot I keep pushing remote button until i get to frontend. Once I exit to desktop, remote doesn't work with irw or if I restart the frontend it doesn't work. I can get it working again by going to terminal, stopping lircd with systemctl stop lircd and starting it again with systemctl start lircd. Then irw and/or frontend will work again Rinse and repeat for same results. Here's lirc_options.conf file. Anyone know how to fix this?

Re: LIRC 10.0-2 bug?
Upgraded another frontend machine tonight and has the exact same problem, although I found that on either machine, if I keep pushing buttons on the remote, it eventually starts working. But this takes up to 5 minutes. All seems to work well after that. Very disheartening after using lirc for over 10 years without a problem.

Wonder if this would apply to your situation?
Make LIRC work in Ubuntu 18.04, so that you can use your infrared remote in Kodi

Don't know. Mute point now that I switched to ir-keytable and no regrets.
