i'm stumped and hoping ya'll can help make this work a little better for the family.
we use an rpi3 + LE 8.0.3 + USB ir TOY v2 + irsend to turn our gear on... this is working rather unreliably. seems after a while the lirc irToy driver can't r/w from the USB device (?)
- if i kill the lircd and restart i still get input/output errors
- if i unplug and plug it back in it works ... for a while
this is what it looks like in journal when its not working
