** Summary changed:

- Not possible to enter correct password after screen lock
+ Keyboard layout doesn't change

** Description changed:

- STR:
-  1) Lock the screen
-  2) Move mouse to force password dialog to appear
-  3) Set correct keyboard layout and enter password
-  4) Returned to desktop
+ With two keyboard layouts (layout1 and layout2, where layout1 is the default for the session)
+ 1) lock the screen with CTRL-ALT-l
+ 2) touch mouse to bring up screensaver dialog
+ 3) switch keyboard layout to layout2 (and note keyboard indicator indicates layout change)
+ 4) enter password *as if layout1 was active* [1]
+ 5) screen is unlocked
+ 6) switch back to layout1
  
- AR:
-  At step 3, no matter which keyboard layout I set (I have US and US-dvorak and toggle with double-shift) the password which I enter is never accepted. I am forced to switch to a tty, login there (with the same password) and `pkill -f gnome-screensaver` to get back to my desktop.
- 
- Note: I use multiple layouts on another oneiric laptop and do not see
- this issue.
+ Repeat, but this time skip step 3 - screen is still unlocked. That is,
+ it seems that although the screensaver dialog indicates that it changes
+ the layout - it is always using the one layout.

Title:
  Keyboard layout doesn't change

Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  With two keyboard layouts (layout1 and layout2, where layout1 is the default for the session)
  1) lock the screen with CTRL-ALT-l
  2) touch mouse to bring up screensaver dialog
  3) switch keyboard layout to layout2 (and note keyboard indicator indicates layout change)
  4) enter password *as if layout1 was active* [1]
  5) screen is unlocked
  6) switch back to layout1
