This is fixed in the new 0.9.4b update (zesty - experimental). This is a major update which supports a /etc/lircd.conf.d/ directory. As shipped, all files in this directory will be used.

There are valid cases for using multiple receivers, for example, the Imon Knob, which only provides volume up, volume down and mute depending on the revision of the hardware, plus another IR remote. If the configuration files were able to support multiple receivers then Mythbuntu Control Center should be able to support it too. Currently manually editing the lirc configurations files is required to get multiple lirc receivers functional.
