Thank you for your bug report, what shortcut do you change? Did you try the version in saucy-proposed? It should fix some issues

In that case in ubuntu session it doesn't become active till next login

Just seems to affect "Custom Shortcuts", if I for example set a new or
change shortcuts in the other categories then they do take effect
immediately

I have created a new bug report for the issue on Cinnamon (bug #1882375) since it is likely cinnamon-specific und unrelated to this bug; cinnamon uses cinnamon-settings-daemon instead of gnome-settings-daemon.
