The Irish Army conducted a census in November 1922. This has been put online by Military Archives this week. Link below.

UnfortunaTely you cannot yet seach by name and have to click on the map by location for a scanned document. The names aren't necessarily in alphabethical order either. Still it's quite interesting as it includes the soldiers home address and NOK.
There also appear to be locations missing. Waterford city for instance definitely had a barracks but it isn't on the map.

Some barracks were still occupied by the British until December 1922 and there were no Irish Free State Army personnel located there until the hand-over.
