Can you check in the Xfce settings if it defines or reserves the shortcut 'Shift+drag'? (According to he Inkscape FAQ, shortcuts like e.g. 'Alt+drag' are often reserved by the window manager for manipulating windows on linux. Possibly Xfce interferes when using 'Shift+drag' instead?)

I failed to find a full documentation on the Xfce web site, but those settings appear to be in
- Settings Manager > Window Manager Settings > Keyboard
- Settings Manager > Keyboard Preferences > Shortcuts
