Ian,

Glad I'm not the only one. No solution, but it happens to me also on every
exit from myth setup, last line in the log is always Locking input devices.

The backend does seem to start up again though. I have just been killing
the myth setup window that stays open, to what ill effect, I don't know.
But guess it could be related to other issues I have been seeing recently.

For me, this seemed to happen after moving to 0.26,rather than the Ubuntu
jump to 12.04. I've been running 0.25 on 12.04 and not had the same issue.
