The livedrive_midi driver reads from /dev/midi by default.
You won't get any /dev/lirc device with this hardware.

When the midi device is located somewhere else you have to point lircd to  
it. First thing to check is whether the midi device generates any output  
when you use the remote. Try cat or hexdump or a similar tool.
If there's no output then there's something wrong before lirc comes into  
play.
