Aha!  That found the problem. 

Error in configfile line 348:
unknown definition: "advc xz eps"
reading of file /etc/lirc/lircd.conf failed
reading of config file failed.

There was an error in the lirc.conf file.
I changed it to aeps 100

Now irsend LIST "" "" shows the four remotes, and irsend will now send
single digits to the controller.
e.g. irsend SEND_ONCE dish211 5 will change the STB to channel 5

No luck changing channels within mythtv yet, but we're peeling back the
layers of this onion.

I still get a failure when I watch tv if I change the command
from /bin/true to /home/mythtv/dish-change-channel-lirc.sh

Possibly a permission problem on the script?
I've attached the channel change script I'm using, and the permissions
that are currently set on that file

Thanks

Jeff
