As part of a string of problems with recent updates in Gnome Flashback (like this, and this), after an update a day or so ago, the shortcut keys I have assigned for switching between Japanese and English stopped working.
I use iBus and Anthy on Gnome Flashback. I have set the shortcut keys to be ctrl+space, but it doesn't respond at all. I have tried changing the keys in the "Text Entry Settings…" interface, but it doesn't seem to matter what keys I opt to use.
I can still switch input methods by clicking on the applet icon in the gnome panel and selecting from the options that drop down, but when typing a lot and switching constantly, as I am almost always doing, having to do it that way really sucks.
How do I get the shortcut keys for switching input methods to work again?

Noticing from your previous questions:
That you are using
ppa:eugenesan/ppa(same as me) which has couple of inconsistent package builds with higher versions then the ones in Ubuntu repository.As it seems bringing many issues for you. Better to disable/remove it and purge installed packages from it and reinstall them from Ubuntu repo. I case you need specific app from it, make only selective upgrade/install from it, avoid blind upgrade.
