Well the magic seems to be missing from my configuration.  :)

There is no magic. That post was very misleading. Cards must be
configured locally. You must add the slave card by running
mythtv-setup on the slave host.

5. in mythtvsetup  on SBE execute steps 1, 2  (note if I try step 4 I
don't see any option other than none for the video source)

This is a bad sign. If you are connecting to the same ddatabase
as your master backend, it will show the same list of video sources
as you see from the master.

The most common cause of this (and this should have been mentioned
in this thread by now) is that you may be connecting to a different
mysqld most likely running on the slave host. This won't work. All
frontends and backends that need to work together need to connect
to the same database.

On your slave host, "/etc/init.d/mysqld stop" and/or "killall mysqld"
If (when) mythtv-setup fails to connect to any database, get to
work on configuring your master's mysqld to allow remote connections
and access for a remote "mythtv" user and set the parameters in your
mysql.txt file.

mysql.txt file on the slave host.

Will go through this again.  I know it is some simple step that I
missed.  I have indications that the SBE is able to connect to the MBE
but it does not seem to be a full connection.

Do I even need to run mysql on the SBE?

Absolutely not. Did you read the message?

  I tried disabling mysqld on the
SBE but mythbackend would not startup.

Obviously. Now that you've established that, re-read what I wrote.
You're slave has been connecting to a different database than your
master. The slave needs to connect to the same database as the master.
