Hi all,
I know this is thread is way old but since I have the same problem I
believe it's worth sharing.
I wasn't able to use the startup command workaround out of the box, and
after some digging the cause is that it runs too early, we need to wait
for some seconds to run.
This is how it worked for me: I have created a bash script that contains
these lines, and call it from the startup applications...
sleep 3
xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap
As always YMMV according to your machine speed, and you may need to
"sleep" a little longer.
Hope it helps!

~/.Xmodmap not read on login

In most previous Ubuntu version I can remember, settings in ~/.Xmodmap
were read upon login.
In Quantal Quetzal, this is no longer the case.
(Sorry, I don't know what package this issue belongs to)
