1. I would try dealing with IRS Insolvency Unit per proof of claim, as said, they seemed to want to help
2. I think they are going to have to file a motion with bankruptcy court to sell the house, indicating how the funds will be disbursed. The bankruptcy attorney will have to co ordinate with the Chapter 13 trustee to get court approval, and then because IRS has a lien, they will be among the first to be paid back
Good luck
