[PROBLEM] Trouble getting lircd to work as expected, also is something else handling IR input?

Maybe deactivating kernel protocol via ir-keytable and just keeping lirc as protocol active may help

Thank for the hint! "ir-keytable --protocol=lirc" did the trick:

Code:

# ir-keytable --read
...
Enabled kernel protocols: lirc rc-6

Code:

# ir-keytable --protocol=lirc
Protocols changed to lirc

Code:

# ir-keytable --read
...
Enabled kernel protocols: lirc

The RC now works perfectly!

I made this permanent with

Code:

# echo "@reboot root sleep 5 && ir-keytable --protocol=lirc > /dev/null 2>&1" > /etc/cron.d/ir-keytable_lirc_only && reboot

...but I guess there is a more elegant method as well...
