The problem here is that the original bindings (<ctrl>-F1 for workspace 1 et cetera) are not removed when you set an other binding. And the new binding is added /after/ the default binding. And, apparently, the first binding found gets active.
The solution, as long as this has not been repaired, is to edit ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml and remove the original bindings.
Note that, whenever you make other changes, all original bindings will reappear!
