> if you have the issue please try to update and comment back here The situation is as follows. At the moment, I can check the issue only within the live-session. So, I have updated the system from the live session and indeed got gnome-settings-daemon updated to 3.3.91-0ubuntu6. So I can see that the problem described in comment #47 and shown at the video from comment #50 has vanished. Thus, during switching between different windows, the layout indicator now seems to work quite correctly. Great! But the way of the bug reproduction which I have described in comment #48 still seems to lead to the same incorrect behavior. So once again, the problem is in the first layout switching right after start of an application. The first switching leads to actual change of the layout but it is not followed by the indicator change. To reproduce: 1) Start any application (say, gedit). The layout is "en" and the indicator shows also "en". 2) Switch the layout to the other. The layout will be actually changed but the indicator will still show "en" which is incorrect.
And one more observation. If you do something (press Alt to reveal HUD, switch to another window and then return back) before the first layout change, the indicator will react correctly. Also, I can reproduce this within both settings "Use the same layout for all windows" and "Allow different layouts for individual windows".

I use three different keyboard layouts, switching between them with shortcut and having "Allow different layouts for individual windows" option enabled. In this configuration layout switch should be processed when shortcut is triggered or when I switch to another window. Moreover "to switch layout" means two things. Firstly it means to switch keyboard mappings themself and secondly to change what layout indicator shows. The problem itself: mappings which is used is often not the same as indicator shows. I experimented a little to find out what is wrong and now I see that the mistake is in processing switch-window event which always changes mappings used but doesn't refresh what indicator is showing... Sometimes it's quite annoying as nearly all bugs reported here :) This is my first bug report ever so correct me or reguest mroe info if I have fogotten something.
