That might be because input devices generate keyboard events, so xine gets a keyboard event and a lirc event. Similarly OK = Enter. See whether lirc has an option to grab the device exclusively; that will prevent the extra keyboard events. Alternatively there's an lirc-compatible program especially for input devices, called inputlirc, and I'm pretty sure that has a grab option.
