I have a similar issue with a german keyboard. I am switching the left Win-/Super-key with the Alt-Gr-key like this:
xmodmap -e "keycode 108 = Super_L"
xmodmap -e "keycode 133 = ISO_Level3_Shift"
After this the new Alt-Gr key (which is the old Win-key) doesn't work anymore in firefox. For example I am not able to type @ directly within firefox. I have to copy-paste it from another application. The new Win-key however works. This issue occurs only in firefox. It works in any other browser and application what means that it is a bug caused by firefox.
Some people also complained on other websites like here:

This is indeed a duplicate of bug 610988. Further discussion should be held there.
