I verified that the shortcuts are enabled (in Keyboard preference), but occasionally Control+1, Control+2, etc stop working on my computer. It works again when I reboot. I'm on Yosemite 10.10.3

What's strange is I can still switch spaces via Control+arrow key.

I had the exact same problem.

To fix it I renamed that com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist file to com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist.backup (just in case), then ran killall Dock and then restarted Dock via Spotlight and now it works fine again.

I have ctrl-1, ctrl-2, etc mapped to spaces. A habit from my Linux days.
