Title:
  keyboard layout always switching US layout after login with a special
  situation

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon

  Dear Developers,

  I hope I choosed right package.
  I see a special problem with default installation is not happened, I compared Lucid and Mawerick working method.
  My lucid system I using following keyboard layouts, US and Hungarian. Because I using Orca Screen Reader, I move top with US keyboard layout, because if I switch US or Hu keyboard layout dinamicaly, Orca keystrokes phisical place is equals both two keyboard layouts if US keyboard layout have top of the keyboard layouts list.

  When I do same configuration with Maverick after installation (add US layout with System>Preferences>Keyboard/layouts page) and using move to top button, after logout and logging in again, the US keyboard layout is always the default keyboard layout. This is the problem, because my Lucid system doesn't producing this bug.
  My home directory of course have a .dmrc file with have following lines if I using hungarian locale:

  [Desktop]
  Language=hu_HU.utf8
  Layout=hu

  If I remove the US keyboard layout the list or move to top with Hungarian keyboard layout, of course the default keyboard layout after login is hungarian, but if I choosing this step, Orca laptop keystrokes is different. For example:
  If I using english keyboard layout, the sayall document command is Capslock+;.
  If I using hungarian keyboard layout, the sayall document command is Capslock+, keystroke, because in hungarian keyboard layout the AltGR, is writing ; character. My Lucid system if I using hungarian layout or english layout, the sayall document command is equals phisical place (Capslock+; or capslock+é if I using hungarian keyboard layout but english keyboard layout is have top of the list my Lucid system).

  Possible fix this problem?

  The reproducation steps is very easy:
  If you have an installed Maverick system, do following steps:
  1. Choose the system>preferences>keyboard preference tool.
  2. Navigate the layouts page, and add for example the US keyboard layout.
  3. Click the move up button if you choosed the US layout with the layouts list.
  4. Logout, and login again. If you are lucky, the keyboard indicator shows the default keyboard is US.
