Settings in remote.xml are ignored, why?

Hello everyone!

i am trying to set my teletext key to a different behavior.

irw outpout for the key to set :

Code:
000000037ff07ba5 00 KEY_TEXT mceusb
000000037ff07ba5 01 KEY_TEXT mceusb

so lookup kodis lircmapping in :

Code:
grep KEY_TEXT /usr/share/kodi/system/Lircmap.xml
                <teletext>KEY_TEXT</teletext>
                <teletext>KEY_TEXT</teletext>

so the xmlkey to set in /usr/share/kodi/system/keymaps/remote.xml is <teletext>.
for figuring things out i just set it to Mute, before i figure out how to open the channellistwindow.

Code:
<global>
    <remote>
      ...........................
      <teletext>Mute</teletext>
    </remote>
  </global>

the key isnt nowhere else defined, just for debugging my issue. Later it will go to the right section.

No mater what i do kodi keeps ignoring my remote.xml. if its in /usr/share/kodi/system/keymaps or ~/.kodi/userdata/keymaps does not make any difference. Undecided

I am targeting the channels list(OSD) in fullscreen livetv after this is solved.

Any Ideas?
