Custom keyboard shortcuts for tiling ignored after (re)boot

[KojiroAK]

version 4.16.1 (revision 5f61a84ad) (Xubuntu 21.10)

Steps to reproduce:

Open Window Manager settings in settings "app"
Go to keyboard
Change shortcut for "tile window to the right" to super+d / "to the left" super+a / "to the bottom" super+x
Check if it accepted it (should work)
reboot
Try again

In my case the shortcut stops working but it still is shown in the settings "app".
The actual shortcut is reverted to super+right / super+left / super+down.

Also when pressing super+$key it treats it like just the $key being pressed (e.g. in a terminal it inserts an a on super+a)

Some shortcuts stick like super+s for "Maximize window" or super+w for "Tile Window to the top".

After setting the shortcuts anew they work until the next (re)boot. I haven't tried how it is with just logout login.

That issue is still present. I installed xubuntu 21.10 and the issue is consistent across multiple machines. Please fix this, I use those shortcuts million times a day :)

This is a workaround that works for me:

function my_fixStartup() {
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Super>Up' -r
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Super>Down' -r
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Super>Left' -r
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Super>Right' -r

    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Shift><Super>Left' -r
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Shift><Super>Right' -r
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Primary><Super>Left' -r
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Primary><Super>Right' -r

    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Super>Up' -n -t string -s 'tile_up_key'
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Super>Down' -n -t string -s 'tile_down_key'
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Super>Left' -n -t string -s 'tile_left_key'
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Super>Right' -n -t string -s 'tile_right_key'

    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Shift><Super>Left' -n -t string -s 'tile_up_left_key'
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Shift><Super>Right' -n -t string -s 'tile_up_right_key'
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Primary><Super>Left' -n -t string -s 'tile_down_left_key'
    xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -p '/xfwm4/custom/<Primary><Super>Right' -n -t string -s 'tile_down_right_key'
}

I was checking for differences from this (when setting through GUI):
xfconf-query -v -l -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts
