Public bug reported:
I was using 16.04 with Dvorak and US-Qwerty keyboard layouts and was
able to utilize both on the login screen. My default layout was Dvorak
(defined in /etc/default/keyboard).
When I upgraded to 18.04 the login became Dvorak only, but after some
searching I found the appropriate setting to add more keyboard layouts
to the login screen. I changed it by adding US-Qwerty as the default
and Dvorak as the second option.
When I try to use the login screen, the default layout is Qwerty and
there's a "en1" icon at the top right that allows me to select a
different keyboard layout. However, when I change it to Dvorak it
appears to do nothing because it only accepts my password if I assume
the layout is Qwerty.
