Are you using sawfish or metacity? If sawfish then the problem is listed
here:-

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91428

It appears that the Gnome Settings Daemon (gsd) needs to spot that a
window manager has just started and send it a signal telling it the
number of workspaces. For some reason Metacity doesn't suffer from the
problem.

However I am unclear how the gsd would actually do this (not being a X
hacker). If someone could enlighten me on this, I would be very
grateful.
