Hi, Im using the above, and it works for me,
What I added, in order to make the post slug work is this:
While it works, I am not sure whether it is the best approach, seems to make the saving of a post very slow.

add_action('save_post', 'set_slug');

function set_slug($post_id){
    $new_slug = get_post_meta($post_id,'custom-slug', true);    
    $post_args = array(
        'ID' => $post_id,
        'post_name' => $new_slug,
    );

    wp_update_post($post_args);
}
