  compiz-plugins schemas not found with gsettings

Bug description:
  When I define key bindings through CompizConfig Settings Manager, they
  are lost on restart. For instance, I can <Super>+arrow to move between
  viewports in the Desktop Wall, but those are lost after I log out. I
  have to manually set the key bindings every time I log in.

  I can't set these as a script, because (I think ) of the problem explained at  http://askubuntu.com/questions/247247/compiz-plugins-schemas-not-found-with-gsettings 
  	

  I have installed the extra plugins (compiz-plugins) for CompizConfig
  Settings Manager (compizconfig-settings-manager) and am trying to
  change these settings from the command line using gsettings.

  The problem is none of these schemas are found by gsettings list-
  recursively and I can't understand why.

  Based on my understanding, the schemas are found through the
  environment variable XDG_DATA_DIRS which currently is this (the
  default with Ubuntu 12.10):

  ben@ben-HPdv6:~$ echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS 
  /usr/share/ubuntu:/usr/share/gnome:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/

  By searching for schema files using the locate command I have found
  what I believe to be the missing schema files as follows:

  ben@ben-HPdv6:~$ locate .schemas | grep "compiz"

  /usr/share/gconf/schemas/compiz-workarounds.schemas
  /usr/share/gconf/schemas/compiz-workspacenames.schemas

  They are all there in /usr/share/gconf/schemas which is within
  /usr/share/ which is part of the default schema lookup environment
  variable XDG_DATA_DIRS. So I don't understand why they aren't
  appearing in gsettings?

  Is there a 'refresh schemas list' command I am missing or does it not
  look recursively in a directory (seems weird cause there also other
  schema files in this directory) or am I not correctly understanding
  how gsettings works?
