I am experiencing this same issue on Ubuntu 14.04 with xubuntu-desktop installed.
To summarize: * I set a new keybinding in Settings -> Window Manager. In my case it was "Alt-F1" to switch to workspace 1. * When I log out or reboot the key binding is lost and "Alt-F1" does nothing. Settings -> Window Manager still says it's bound to "Alt-F1" but it does not function. * If I re-set the key by double-clicking "Alt-F1" and then pressing "Alt-F1" again it works. * In the file `~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml` multiple definitions exist for the same key combination and also for `workspace_1_key`. I have tried the following fixes: * In Settings -> Window Manager "clear" the key first. It shows "Ctrl-F1" (the old value) on the first click and then shows "" - the value I would expect on the second click. I then re-bind the "Alt-F1" key. * In Settings -> Settings Manager -> Settings Editor -> xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts I have tried un-clicking and re-clicking "override" two times in a row. I will report back as to whether these fixes work or not. Obviously this should be fixed in the code though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292290 Title: [SRU] Window manager keybindings don't work after reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfwm4/+bug/1292290/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
