Title:
  Default workspace navigation key shortcuts do not work

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Symptoms (on up-to-date Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy installation):
  --------------------------------------------------------
  * Default 2x2 workspaces are enabled (Workspace switcher icon in Launchbar):
   (System settings > Appearance > Behaviour : Enable workspaces)
  * Can navigate between workspaces using Workspace switcher in Launchbar or 
   the Super+S key and arrow keys
  * Workspace navigation defaut shortcuts are apparently defined:
   (System settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Navigation)
     Eg  'Switch to workspace right' is shown as  'Ctrl+Alt+Right'
     but this key combination does not have any effect.

  Solution / workaround:
  ----------------------
  * Install ccsm package:
  $ sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
  Run the compiz settings program:
  $ ccsm
  * You should see that 'Desktop Wall' in the Desktop section is not checked/enabled
  *  Enable/check 'Desktop Wall' in the Desktop section
  * Exit ccsm
  * Log out and log in again
  * Workspace navigation keys should now work
