I don't know enough about lirc to help you with this, but I was curious to
know if you got this to work. I never got my pvr-150 ir blaster to function
- the furthest I got was getting the blaster to emit light, but I was never
quite able to control my DCT2524 STB. I ended up just buying a separate ir
blaster.

In case you are still working on this problem, and if you have not already,
you should check to see if both pvr-150 work with their corresponding ir
blasters in a system that would have only ONE pvr-150 before trying to get
both working together. This would verify that your problem is not hardware
related.
