That's not correct.  You can advise a primitive function, but the advice will
only affect calls to that function made from Lisp, not calls from other
primitives.

Are you sure your advice on other-buffer is being called when
switch-to-buffer is called?  That shouldn't be possible, as switch-to-buffer
is a primitive, like kill-buffer; neither should see your advice.
