numlock

I upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10. And there are two problem: Numlock is on. But after I press Ctrl+Space (hotkey for IBus, (default in 13.10 is Super+Space)), Numlock is off and I must press Numlock button twice to enable Numlock.

About remapping keyboard, because my keyboard have some broken key, so I am using xmodmap to remap my keyboard (config file for xmodmap is $HOME/.xmodmap). But when I switch keyboard layout (I mentioned above), everything changed to default, and I must run xmodmap .xmodmap to remap keyboard again.

When using Ubuntu 13.04, everything is good. How to solve my problems?

UPDATE:
1. I am using two keyboard layout: English (US) and Unikey (from ibus-unikey package).
2. If I change key board layout using menu on Unity panel, no first problem.
