add a select signal at the beginning of your channel changing script. 
here's mine:

#!/bin/sh
REMOTE_NAME=JVC_4700
irsend --device=/dev/lircd SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME select
sleep 0.3
for digit in $(echo $1 | sed -e 's/./& /g'); do
irsend --device=/dev/lircd SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME $digit
sleep 0.3 # note, you may have to tweak the interdigit delay up a bit
done
irsend --device=/dev/lircd SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME select
