Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working properly

Description

Verified with both Xfce built from git and on Fedora 29. See: https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=50351#p50351

When changing an existing keyboard shortcut or creating a new one (success is more frequent), the keyboard shortcut stops working or doesn't work at all.

Symptoms are as follows:

  1. The panel button depresses but the menu doesn't popup
  2. In ~/.xsession-errors I get "(xfce4-panel:561): Gtk-WARNING **: 10:38:24.926: no trigger event for menu popup"
  3. If I press the shortcut key again, it seems to ignore this shortcut and goes back to the default (possibly from /etc/xdg.....)
  4. I need to click the panel icon to un-depress it to keep it from using the default shortcut.
