That sounds like the issue, you'll probably have to futz around with
xev, xkeycaps, and the xkb tools to get things straightened out

The numpad keys and normal numbers are different keypresses, then are
mangled by your keyboard mapping, and then are mapped onto different
keysyms (which is what xmonad uses as an xlib program).

An easy way out would be to try defining the bindings again manually,
only this time using "xK_KP_1" instead of "xK_1" so that the keypad is
used.
