If I use irrecord then everything flips and the ones that didn't work now do with what I assigned them to and the previously working keys don't register (even though I assigned all keys).

That's just odd, can't explain why only half the keys would work, then only the
*other* half would work...

This is what works for me:

http://lirc.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=lirc/lirc;a=tree;f=remotes/devinput;hb=HEAD

Shouldn't need a lircrc to verify if lirc is working, just use irw. If that
doesn't report all keys with the above lircd.conf, I'd also suggest grabbing
evtest and see what it reports seeing.
