I have Taxonomy Redirect routing taxonomy links to a view with a term name arg.
I'd like to kill off the old taxonomy/term/tid URL and was expecting Global Redirect to to be able to accomplish this. However, it seems that Taxonomy Redirect doesn't *exactly* create a duplicate URL for each term since both this work and are different pages.
EX:
http://tackysmack.com/taxonomy/term/68
http://tackysmack.com/products/balloons
This really pop-ed up when trying to create an xmlsitemap and seeing both URLs in the list for each term.
Is there a way for Taxonomy Redirect to register/process it's URL alterations differently to integrate with Global Redirect properly?
PS: Module weights have been checked. Global Redirect is at 0 and XMLsitemap modules are at 5/15/5/10.

Global redirect will not have the affect you want with taxonomy_redirect.
Global redirect optimises url aliases. Taxonomy redirect does not create url aliases.
This is why you get the problem you are describing.
Please read the node on the taxonomy_redirect project page about how it works with taxonomy_term_path.
Also, if you are interested, there is an issue regarding taxonomy_redirect making url aliases here - #258146: Can we disable the old taxonomy menu path with this module
