Dear Matthew, 

Looking at your code, I don't see why using ambient light functions would not 
work. 
However, if you directly use the code you have shown in pastebin, you may have 
problems
to use libIrcom because the library needs to be properly initialized.

Stefano's approach seems to me the safe and easy way. Can you try to insert
your code inside a working example from libIrcom ?

Best regards,
Alexandre Campo.
