Well, actually I did switch to arch linux, not an ubuntu user anymore.
However I suppose it is still issue because of upstream ibus-libpinyin
package. Likely I would to post a bug report there but right now I am
simply fixing it for my self using simple patch like this:
```
diff -Naur src.org/ibus-libpinyin-1.9.0/src/libpinyin.xml.in.in

```
After that all starts working just fine.
see source here https://github.com/libpinyin/ibus-
libpinyin/blob/master/src/libpinyin.xml.in.in#L24
switching to chinese from russian uses default layout, as described in
that xml, which is RU. because of that switching does not work. Forcing
the layout to be US resolves the issue.
Hope the information will be useful to somebody

Title:
Switching from russian to chinese does not work
Status in ibus-anthy package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in ibus-libpinyin package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in ibus-pinyin package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
There are three languages installed: en, ru, chinese pinyin (adjusted
to be switched in this exact order).
Switching en->ru works fine.
Next switching ru->cn leaves the keyboard in russian thus impossible to enter
chinese.
Switching in reverse order en->cn works as expected.
