I suspect this is the problem.

If you've used xmodmap to customize your windows key so it can be used
with stumpwm, setxkbmap resets it. So you should add an additional
call after setxkbmap to reload your xmodmap file or do whatever
customizations you need to do.

Something that would help debug this problem is to leave the default
prefix map, C-t. and run your commands. When I do this, everything
works fine.
