IR remote stopped working when upgrading from 9.2 to 10.0 on RockPro64

I am using the Pine64 RockPro64 with their IR remote. The remote was working just fine in 9.2. I deferred upgrading to the 9.95 versions since the remote ceased working and hoped that would get fixed with a proper 10.0 release. Downgrading to 9.2 re-enables the remote again.

I followed the advice in RE: LibreELEC (Matrix) 10.0 BETA1 the Remote-Control dos does not work , e.g. I added

``````# .config/rc_maps.cfg

```* * pine64.toml

I also tried loading ir_nec_decoder, both manually via modprobe and adding it to .config/modules-load.d/ir-nec.

Loading it manually notes in dmesg:

```[ 42.505521] IR NEC protocol handler initialized

But adding it to modules-load.d does not get reflected in dmesg at all. Either way, ir-keytable responds with

No devices found

and irw remains blank.

Suggestions are appreciated.

I downgraded libreelec to 9.2.6 in order to get some info from a working version. While doing that i gathered the following info regarding the IR device.

Note: in 10.0 ir-keytable says "No devices found" and neither rc_core/rc-core nor lirc-dev/lirc_dev can be loaded via modprobe. These outputs are from 9.2.6.
