Xfce: cannot change Alt+F1 shorcut assignment [SOLVED]

Hello all. New system is up and running great. I have chosen Xfce as my new WM, but have one quirk that is driving me crazy.

When I go to the Keyboard tab in Window Manager settings and Select my Custom shortcut profile, double-click the "Workspace 1" item, then press "Alt+F1" (my personal preference), Xfce pops Firefox up in front of everything with Xfce help. I am unable to change this key assignment. I have even assigned a bogus web browser under Preferred Apps to keep it from popping the browser up, but the key assignment still does not stick in the Window Manager settings window. What is going on here? I don't remember this problem the last time I used Xfce.

You can disable the Alt+F1 keyboard shortcut in Keyboard Settings - Shortcuts tab,

or in the ~/.config/xfce4/shortcuts/profilename.xml file.
