Comment 2 for bug 1312287

So I just had to have my IR remote so I dug deep into the IR processes. Bottom line, when the "rc_core" module is loaded it includes many components, some of which has no meaning to your system. I learn how data flowed from the USB IR through the driver and other modules and how to exclude module components that were not needed. Rebooted, problem solved.

How to exclude unnecessary module components.
To see module components:
# lsmod | grep rc_core

To exclude the Sanyo Decoder component from rc_core module create a file in /etc/modules.d. Use a name that has meaning such as "blacklist-IR.conf. Put the following line in that file. Do the same with other unneeded elements.

install ir_sanyo_decoder /bin/true

F.Y.I. Here is what I put in my Blacklist file.

install ir_sony_decoder /bin/true
install ir_jvc_decoder /bin/true
install ir_rc5_decoder /bin/true
install ir_nec_decoder /bin/true
install cx23885 /bin/true
install rc_hauppauge /bin/true
install ir_sanyo_decoder /bin/true
