Title:
  Language switching shortcuts don't work in the lock screen (gnome-
  screensaver)

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

Bug description:
  Hotkeys configured in the system Text Entry settings for keyboard
  language switching (e.g. Ctrl+Shift or CapsLock) don't work in the
  lock screen (gnome-screensaver).

  Steps to reproduce this bug:
  1. In the system Text Entry settings:
    1a. add two or more languages to the input sources list (e.g. English and Russian);
    1b. Set hotkeys to switch sources (e.g. Ctrl+Shift or CapsLock).
  2. Lock the screen (Ctrl+Alt+L) or just wait idle time.
  3. In the lock screen try to switch keyboard layout language using selected shortcut.

  Expected: keyboard input language switched
  What happened instead: keyboard input language didn't switch

  Ubuntu versions affected: Ubuntu 13.10, Ubuntu 14.04 (daily builds)
  gnome-screensaver versions: 3.6.1-0ubuntu7, 3.6.1-0ubuntu9
