Unfortunately I didn't have a chance to get access to SoundGraph iMON
derived devices so far, but your proposed patch adds quite a bit of
complex code to the init script which appears to be very specific to
the iMON case, while not solving (and eventually worsen) the general
problem of using several different lirc devices at the same time.
Looking at Jarod Wilson's (new lirc upstream) blog[1] however suggests
that lirc isn't even necessary for your device at all, could you take
a look at [1] and confirm if that would solve your problems as well?
