As far as I remember, I didn't experience that at all, but it could be
it's not quite the same display(=driver)?

Anyways, here are the uncommented parts of my LCDd.conf, which seems
to work properly:

[server]
Driver=HD44780
Bind=127.0.0.1
Port=13666
WaitTime=5
User=nobody
ServerScreen=yes
Foreground=yes
#these two above should probably be turned off for "production"
Heartbeat=open
InitialHeartbeat=on
Backlight=open
InitialBacklight=on
BacklightBrightness=255
BacklightOffBrightness=0

[HD44780]
Port=0x378
ConnectionType=winamp
Keypad=no
Backlight=no
Size=16x2
DelayBus=true
Device=/dev/lp0
