Applescript to change osx desktop (spaces) not working

Question

I am running osx Sierra, 10.12.4

The following applescript used to trigger a switch to the next desktop space to the right.

tell application "System Events" key code 124 using control down end tell

I can verify that "System Events" is working and will trigger other keyboard commands that affect system processes such as:

tell application "System Events" key code 28 using {control down, command down, option down} end tell

...which will trigger the accessibility setting that turns the screen to inverse colors.

Does anybody have a solution for restoring this functionality in Sierra?

Answer 1

I changed the shortcut for move right in system preferences/Keyboard/Shortcuts/Mission control.. from ctrl + right arrow to ctrl + 0 (key code 29 using (control down)) and it works now.

tell application "System Events"
    key code 29 using (control down)
end tell
