I got a work around on this. The problem is to assign something with
ALT. I think it confuses the system with HUD shortcut. I changed my
music keyboard shortcuts from ALT+X/Z/C to something else like a
keyboard assigned button BACK, PLAY, FORWARD and it works. Ubuntu does
not forget the shortcut.

Thus, it is just a clash between the shortcut of Hud and your custom
assignment of ALT to another program that makes Ubuntu forget your
shortcut but prioritize the HUD one. In this sense, the problem is
"fixed".

Title:
  Ubuntu forgets keyboard shortcuts after a restart

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  I use Dell XPS 1640. I'm using the latest ubuntu 12 and updated
  everything as of today. I assign some shortcuts for music to ubuntu
  keyboard shortcuts such as when i press ALT + X the music
  plays/pauses. However, after I restart the system, ubuntu forgets them
  and I have to reconfigure it everytime.

  I am new to Ubuntu but willing to help on debugging if it is simple
  and not technical.
