I believe that usermod(8) requires *all* supplementary groups to be
mentioned in its -G parameter.

   -G, --groups GROUP1[,GROUP2,...[,GROUPN]]]
       A list of supplementary groups which the user is also a member of.
       Each group is separated from the next by a comma, with no
       intervening whitespace.

Also, you will need to log out and back in of your desktop session
before your session "knows" you are in a new group.
