... but that not works every time,means sometimes cannot work....that's because you dont wait for lirc daemon to start. The simplest way to solve such problems (not only with lirc) is to write small script like that:
#!/bin/bash
while [ -z "$(pidof lircd)" ]; do
sleep 1
done
irxevent ....<your xevents>
exit 0...then invoke it as startup application ;)
...and don't forget to give it execution permission.
