I am also having problems after upgrading to 12.04 from 10.10 with irexec, as 
it doesn't start
I am getting this message:

irexec
irexec: could not connect to socket
irexec: Connection refused


when I try restarting LIRC this error message come up 

* Stopping remote control daemon(s): LIRC                                       
                                     [fail] 
 * Loading LIRC modules                                                         
                                      [ OK ] 
 * Unable to load LIRC kernel modules. Verify your
 * selected kernel modules in /etc/lirc/hardware.conf

But the remote works, but unlike your hardware.conf files mine has items
listed in modules

#Chosen Remote Control
REMOTE="Windows Media Center Transceivers/Remotes (all)"
REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev lirc_mceusb"
REMOTE_DRIVER=""
REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/lirc0"
REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF="mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb"
REMOTE_LIRCD_ARGS=""
