Title:
  Keyboard indicator shows wrong layout, and default layout is not
  active

Status in indicator-keyboard package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have Norwegian set as the default layout, and English as the
  secondary layout. Suddenly passwords stop working, and if I test my
  keyboard somewhere my writing is visible, I can see that the English
  layout is actually the one that is active, even though Norwegian is my
  default layout and it is the one that is shown as active in my
  indicator. I never change this (on purpose anyway). Just choosing
  Norwegian again solves the problem.

  This has happened at the Ubuntu login prompt, but it has usually
  worked fine. I often suspend and then wake the computer again later,
  and I can't recall experiencing this at that point, but suddenly a
  login online fails later. It could be that I've hit some key combo,
  but the indicator still shows the wrong layout if that's the case.

  I had this same issue with Ubuntu 13.10 (though never before, and as
  you can see I've been upgrading my Ubuntu since 11.10 or something
  like that), but I figured it'd probably just be ignored if I reported
  it since 14.04 was around the corner, but I've already experienced the
  same with Ubuntu 14.04.
