Got the board populated.  Forgot one capacitor and grabbed the wrong usb connector, otherwise looked really good.  A few solder balls.  The TDFN-8 package was really pushing my laser cut stencil but looks like it worked nicely.  The IR leds are pretty tiny, will be interesting to see what range they can get.

Tried a 3d printed diffuser / snap dome alignment jig.  It worked well for getting the domes onto the tape in right spot.  It was too thick for the buttons to work properly.  The battery powered vacuum tweezers from ali-express were a great addition to the workbench.  

The boss for the bottom case mounting screws interfered with IR demodulator and the light sensor/usb tvs ic.  I modified the case to fit.  Added courtyard to the bottom layer for the next board.

Baseline code for ESP and MSP were loaded, power via USB connector was working.  Sometimes ESP seems to lockup when USB is connected.  Also noted some noise on the button matrix.  Pressing 4 or 7 seems to trigger a bunch of random button presses.
