I have the exact same binding in mine (indeed, I believe it's one of the
defaults):

  <keybind key="C-Mod4-2">
    <action name="SendToDesktop">
      <desktop>2</desktop>
      <follow>no</follow>
    </action>
  </keybind>

If I had to guess, I'd say you have overlapping key bindings.  What do you
get from openbox's stdout?  Bind it all by itself... does it work now?
