In the end, I went for another approach: I still had a STM32F-programmer around so I equiped that with https://www.mikrocontroller.net/articles/IRMP_auf_STM32_-_ein_USB_IR_Empf%C3%A4nger/Sender/Einschalter_mit_Wakeup-Timer#Introductionand now use that to send and receive commands. It's not pretty, but it does what I need until I find a fix that makes the normal IR work - though the current changelog suggests that IR should work now with armbian.

Hey, I am currently trying to get sending IR commands from my CubieTruck working. I am using Igors Armbian_4.2_Cubietruck_Debian_jessie_3.4.108 image. But it seems like the modules are not initialised in a way that they also can send since irsend returns errors that this device does not support sending. I tried it with the hardware.conf from the image aswell as with the hardware.conf and init.d file from https://github.com/matzrh/sunxi-lirc/wiki. Apparently, I have to do "echo $GPIO-Number > /sys/class/lirc_gpio/tx_gpio_pin" which I did with the right pin so in theory, the driver should be set up the way it is supposed to be. Yet still irsend throws errors. Can anybody give me a hint on how to set up the IR sending over GPIO properly? p.s.: Unrelated to this, but maybe generally interesting: Apparently, when GPIO-Pin 2 exists, it automatically binds to wl_host_wake - which obviously is generally annoying if you want to work with that gpio.
