Do you use hal_manualtoolchange in your configuration file?  At the end
of a successful emc session, are any errors printed at shutdown?
Another user on irc reported a similar problem, and it had to do with
emc not waiting for a userspace component such as hal_manualtoolchange
to exit before finishing cleanup.

You can also negate the encoder scale, which is usually the
[AXIS_#]INPUT_SCALE value in the inifile but can be put directly in the
hal file as well.

However, I don't understand why the changes to the physical inputs you
described wouldn't fix the problem.
