Yes, this is exactly what I am seeing as well, using Jarod's "power button" script.  This was causing me all kinds of pain until I finally realized that 2 instances of mythfrontend were running.

Thanks for the info.

add the following into your myth-load.sh file:

---
MYTH="`ps ax | grep mythfrontend | grep -v grep`"

if [ ! "$MYTH" ]
then
   # place all stuff you want to run with mythfrontend here
   /path/to/bin/mythfrontend
fi
---

that checks for a running mythfrontend process and only executes the
code inside the if/then if there isn't already a mythfrontend process
running ...
