Absolutely quick and dirty fix for this...

$ apt-get source gnome-settings-daemon
...
$ sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-settings-daemon
...
$ sudo apt-get devscripts build-essential fakeroot patch patchutils
...
$ cd gnome-settings-daemon-3.2.0
$ patch -p1 < 0001-change.patch
$ debuild -uc -us -b
...
$ cd ..
$ sudo dpkg -i gnome-settings-daemon_3.2.0-*
...
$ sudo killall gnome-settings-daemon

gsd-keyboard-kbd applet should be GONE.

Title:
  Unnecessary gst-keyboard-xkb appearing in Notification Area when
  multiple keyboard layouts enabled

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “gnome-shell” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Running GNOME3 and enabling a second keyboard layout has caused a
  "[broken image] gst-keyboard-xkb" to appear in my Notification Area.

  gnome-shell's active layout indicator up next to accessibility and
  volume is present and working. But a separate thing, calling itself
  "gst-keyboard-xkb" with a menu is incorrectly appearing in the
  Notification Area.

  The annoying thing in the Notification Area would appear to be related
  to the libappindicator3-1 dependency but may be a GtkStatusIcon driven
  fallback.

  Rebuilding the package to remove the appindicator support patches
  would likely fix the issue; that's not the right resolution of course
  but upstream does not consider this their problem since it arrises
  from an Ubuntu patch.
