[Bug 1481025] [NEW] Keyboard shortcut for layout switching works in Unity but not in Gnome-Flashback

 

Public bug reported:

My keyboard layout is "us,gr", and the new Gnome way to switch between them is by pressing "Super+Space".
This works fine in:
 * Gnome-Flashback (Metacity) 14.04
 * Unity 14.04
 * Unity 15.10

It doesn't work in:
 * Gnome-Flashback (Metacity) 15.10

I've tested with the 15.10 default (Unity) installation, selecting Greek
language in ubiquity, and adding gnome-flashback after the installation.

Just for reference, here are my related gsettings:
$ gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.desktop.input-sources
org.gnome.desktop.input-sources show-all-sources false
org.gnome.desktop.input-sources per-window false
org.gnome.desktop.input-sources current uint32 1
org.gnome.desktop.input-sources sources [('xkb', 'us'), ('xkb', 'gr')]
org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options ['grp:alt_shift_toggle', 'grp_led:scroll']
