Title:
  NumLock turned off on layout switch

Status in X.Org X server:
  Confirmed
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Extracting from bug 1218322, confirmed there by multiple users:

  When switching the keyboard layout using a shortcut (such as
  Alt+Shift), NumLock functionality is (mostly) turned off.  More
  precisely: it goes into an inconsistent state where pressing numpad 5
  inserts the digit 5, but the other numpad keys move the cursor.
  Pressing the NumLock key turns it off completely (pressing numpad 5 no
  longer does anything), and pressing once again turns it on.

  This means that if someone prefers to have the NumLock functionality
  switched on all the time, they have to press the NumLock key twice
  after each layout change. I find this a huge usability problem.

  (I don't have a LED, so I cannot tell how that one is lit.)

  The bug is not present when changing the layout via the indicator
  applet.
