When autologin is enabled in GNOME, it appears that libxklavier fails to
set the layout settings. The system falls back to the /etc/X11/xorg.conf

It is well-known issue with autologin and startx - X reports XKB

Sergey:
I'm trying to track this down, can you give me any hints on what to look for
here?
Where (and how) does gnome actually set the xkb configuration at startup?

sort-of. 16364 describes an xmodmap issue, and xmodmap had the right behaviour already (i.e. apply to all devices instead of just the VCP/VCK).
xkb didn't have this behaviour until c06e27b2f6fd9f7b9f827623a48876a225264132.

16364 was caused by the VCK having a different keymap before the first
key is pressed, which would also be an issue for this bug I guess. So
this bug depends on 16364, but not the other way round.

This should be fixed in master now. We have the same keymap for both MDs and
SDs now, so anything GNOME does on the MD propagates down.
