Summary: ibus only changes keyboard layout when focus is given
to a text input
Product: systemsettings
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_keyboard

SUMMARY
Ibus only changes keyboard layout after focus is given to a text input.
If I switch layouts and focus is currently not on a text input, the change is
not reflected in the systray icon, and the change will actually happen next
time focus is on a text input.
This is annoying because the layout indicator doesn't always reflect what is
actually selected, because it makes using shortcuts awkward (I have to make
sure that my "base" keymap is selected and activated for shortcuts to work).
Also it is impossible to switch layouts in Plasma's log-on screen.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. I configured 3 layouts in ibus: EN US qwerty, FR FR azerty, EN dvorak int'l
dead keys.
2. I switch layouts using super-space.
3. The problem that I described happens.
