I can confirm the same problem using Gnome 3.14.1; Nautilus doesn't remember hidden files toggle, nor clicking the button in preferences menu, nor the Ctrl+H; it works since session is open, but when closing and reopen it the option is on again.

After all windows are closed nautilus remembers to show hidden files again when opening a new window. If strg+h is pressed again to hide hidden files nautilus does so but still keeps showing hidden files in new windows. When changed via gui the setting is remembered correctly.
