I had the problem that the hotkey (Super+Space) was not actually
changing the input method, even though the icon changed. (Selecting it
from the menu worked OK). I'm not entirely sure how I fixed it, but I
ran ibus-setup and set the settings to:

* Customise active input methods: Off
* No input methods in list
* Use system keyboard layout: Off
* Share the same input method among all applications: On

and then rebooted. And it started working.

In Language Support in the prefs, my input method system is set to Ibus.
In the Text Entry prefs, I have two input sources listed - English and
Bengali (Avro Phonetic), the key set to Super+Space, and Use the Same
Source for All Windows selected. I'm also using a custom font.

It's still true that when I select Bengali (Avro Phonetic) and click the
little keyboard icon, it shows me the wrong keyboard layout (an English
one of some sort). Not sure what's up with that. But at least input
method switching works again!

Hope this helps someone,

Gerv

Title:
  Keyboard layout changing randomly

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

Bug description:
  Just upgraded from 12.04 (raring) to 12.10 (saucy) and keyboard layout keeps changing from pt_br to what I think is en_us.
  It seems random so I don't know what trigger this, but sometimes just alt-tabbing is enough to mess with keyboard layout in one of the windows.
  I already removed the en_us from my keyboard sources, double checked the use of one source for all windows, and even removed accelerators to switch between layouts but none have worked.
