Binding Meta/Mod/Windows keys for XFWM

I'm having a strange issue trying to use my windows
key in Xfce4.

I have this in my .Xmodmap file: 
clear mod4
keycode 115 = Meta_L Multi_key
keycode 116 = Meta_R Multi_key
add mod4 = Meta_L Meta_R

And that doesn't give me any issues in Gnome for
binding the windows key to things. However in Xfce it
doesn't like it for some reason.

For example, i have set in my Xfce keybindings this:
next_workspace_key=Mod4+Right

When using that setting, just pressing the Right arrow
moves desktops. If I then hold the windows key, it
stops!  It seems to be the exact opposite of what I'm
trying to achieve :)

Does anyone know what i'm doing wrong?
