There may be a bug in Alfred. I have exhausted my ability to trouble shoot this any further.
I am using OSX 10.9.4 on a 2013 Mac Pro with a USB wired 10 key keyboard
I am using Alfred 2.3 (264)
Problem:
When I try to create a hotkey that will type the date for me I am only allowed to make said hotkey with command + the number "8" key on my 10 key pad, not the number "8" above the qwerty keys on my key board.
I have looked in the OSX keyboard shortcuts to ensure that the shortcut was not already assigned to another function.
Here are two pictures of the workflow.
