In an attempt to see if my own configuration was corrupted, I backup my autokey configuration at:
/home/user/.config/autokey

Then I deleted it, and launched autokey. It created a brand new folder at that same location.

I then attempted create a hotkey for one of the default phrases that comes with autokey. I was unable to achieve this; I was able to select the control keys I wanted (using the mouse), but upon hitting a particular key (on the keyboard), it would not register that key:

Unfortunately, this ends my testing of Ubuntu 13.10 alpha. I'm was fine with running this alpha (for 8 days) until AutoKey stopped working. I'm going back to 13.04, and I'll upgrade again in a couple of week if these autokey issues are resolved.
