In this case if falls back to the default "us"
layout because there is no xkb mapping for
a type 6 layout 258 keyboard in
/usr/X11/lib/X11/xkb/xkbtable.map

As soon as you add an entry

    6       258     -       sun_type6_euro_usb      is,dk

to the xkbtable.map and restart hal it
reports input.x11_options.XkbLayout = 'is,dk'
in lshal output.

You could change the "/usr/lib/hal/hald --daemon=yes"
line in the startup script /lib/svc/method/svc-hal to
/usr/lib/hal/hald --daemon=yes --verbose=yes --use-syslog

hal debug output should be logged to /var/adm/messages
after restarting the hal service.
