Okay, so I'm not really sure what is going. I've tested with mode2 and
indeed it reads signals, though I'm not sure if correctly. For one, I was
never able to detect proper spacing with irrecord, always having to use raw
signals instead, no matter which remote even when it worked years back, I'm
not sure if its relevant but I didn't many people complaining about it
either.

Second point, now this is the weird part because it lacks some consistency.
It took a bit of time messing around but I've managed to get a good test
sample, tried to keep it short because usually logs are so big.

I had redone irrecord quickly with some most used keys, in this case only
KEY_OK was read properly, and indeed if you read remote config, it was
wrongly coded.
Remote config file https://ptpb.pw/jGGV.conf
Syslog of the brief period above: https://ptpb.pw/EBsE

Still nothing obvious for me to pinpoint what the issue might be, what else
can I check? And regarding "irrecord --force" am I doing something wrong
since I'm always needing to use it? And is it possible for a faulty sensor
to be half working like that?
