I too had two instances of Mythfrontend starting up.  It was something to do with having two XFCE sessions and autostarting.  This caused quite awful audio issues.  Both frontends were responding to the remote control, however they would not be 100% in sync with each other, and so i got terrible echo artifacts occuring.  

I was never able to resolve the issue properly.  In the end i reinstalled Mythbuntu and the issue disappeared.
