Keyboard shortcut binding issues

Hello!

I just upgraded to 2.4, something I have been looking forward to doing for quite a while.  I am having a minor problem that may be a bug.  I had added quite a few additional keyboard shortcuts which LyX stored in a user.bind file in the bind subdirectory of the user directory.  The old version of LyX apparently knew about this file and the default cua file simultaneously.  In the new version, it appears to be one or the other.  When the bind file is set to cua (as it was in 2.3.7) none of the new shortcuts work.  But here's the kicker: those new shortcuts are visible under Preferences -> Editing -> Shortcuts.  So LyX seems to see the file, it just does not allow me to use those shortcuts when the bind file is set to cua.  If I change it to user, which I did not need to do before, the new shortcuts work, but none of the default ones—like copy and paste—do.  I can probably merge the two files into the user.bind file as a workaround, but is this a bug or is there something I am forgetting to do?

Thanks!
