[Bug 889484] [NEW] Keyboard Layout settings are not respected running compiz or Unity

 

Public bug reported:

I have got three keyboard layouts: English (US), Russian and Norwegian.  Keyboard Layout settings are as following:
* Allow different layouts for individual windows.
* New windows use the default layout.

Those settings are respected if I open new window and the default layout
is used (English) under GNOME desktop however if I run Unity or any
desktop with compiz then new window ALWAYS got the previous window's
layout regardless the settings.

I have started experience the problem since Natty release however some
people claim it is from 10.04, see GNOME bug reported at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=628529

It looks like bug is related to compiz or Unity and GNOME team has no
way to fix the issue.

Thank you,
Oleg
