I also experience this same behavior as well. I upgraded from 13.04 to 13.10. The shortcut hints overlay did work fine in 13.04, but it no longer displays the shortcut hints in 13.10. I do get the numbers on the dash for each application when holding down the Super key in 13.10, but no shortcut hints overlay.
My screen size is 1366x768.

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After upgrading from 13.04 to 13.10, holding Super no longer brings up the help overlay. Holding Super worked before upgrading. Tapping the Super key still brings up the HUD, and holding it down still brings up the Launcher and after a second or so shows the numbers on the applications. In Compiz Config Manager, under Ubuntu Unity Plugin -> Launcher, the Key to show the Dash, Launcher and Help Overlay is set to Super. Under Ubuntu Unity Plugin -> General, Enable Shortcut Hints Overlay is checked.
