Ok, booted back into Ubuntu gnome, can report: The correct wording is
"Control Button5" (not "ctrl Button5" like I said earlier)
That was just a typo in this bug report while reporting it from Kubuntu.

What I can say is, if I go into Gconf editor and find
/apps/compiz/plugins/vpswitch/allscreens/options/prev_button and
change that to "Button 4", then it sticks and works fine.
If I then open ccsm and went to these settings and disabled "Button4",
then tried to set it back to Button 4 again it would not stick once
again.

So the temporary fix is to use gconf-editor to make the changes stick
and not try do it from within ccsm, until a fix is found for that
method.

This will do fine for me for now, thanks Saïvann Carignan for the info.
