In between I reported the bug I installed Ubuntu GNOME on my "test" partition and did the previous test by installing the 'ubuntu-desktop' metapackage to get Unity back. For some reason it didn't pull unity- settings-daemon which wasn't installed when I ran the test.
I installed it manually and confirm that layout switching with both Super+Space and Super+Shift+Space work properly if I use your PPA. Sorry for the confusion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270555 Title: The Text Entry dialog shows invalid keyboard shortcuts to change layout Status in “unity-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: On Ubuntu Trusty: Clicking the "Text entry settings" on indicator-keyboard opens the "Text Entry" configuration panel. However, this panel shows two keybindings to switch between keyboard layouts which are unusable in their default setting: - Switch to next source using: Super + Space - Switch to previous source using: Shift + Super + Space Changing the combo to any which doesn't include the Super key works- around the problem. I'm speculating that this happens because Compiz/Unity incercepts the Super key since it is used to manage its shortcuts.
