Why the former schema? gnome-settings-daemon reads button-layout
setting and exports it to XSettings just fine, so there is no need to
use an override.

(unity-settings-daemon doesn't currently export that setting, but I
have a branch that fixes that:
https://code.launchpad.net/~mitya57/unity-settings-daemon/headerbar-xsettings,
being discussed on ubuntu-desktop ML).
