Make sure the bike is in neutral if the sidestand is down. If the stand is down you won't be able to start the bike in gear, even with the clutch pulled in.
If it still doesn't start, I'd agree with your guess. If you don't have a meter to test, just bridge the switch connectors with a suitable piece of wire and see if the bike starts. If it does, then you know the problem and can either fix it or bypass the switch permanently.
If you look under the clutch perch you'll see a two pin connector. Pull it out and bridge the two sides of the connector (the female part, not the prongs under the lever).
