Moreover, sometimes when I lock the screen even login screen's input
method may change too.
actually, it doesn't switch layout (at least for me), but it ADDS A NEW LAYOUT
instead!
let me explain this.
I do not use a "plain" en_us layout, but use us+dvorak and ru+dvorak (custom
created).
so, when "us+dvorak" is active, it adds "us" to the end of the list.
when "ru+dvorak" is active,
I noticed that it's switching at the following moments:
1. switching terminal from console to xorg (ctrl+alt+f2 -> ctrl+alt+f7)
2. resume from hibernation
3. os boot
all these cases are related to console in some way.
probably console meddles to layout somehow...

no!chance.
I have only 1 keyboard installed - English (UK) - but after every reboot, it
seems to default to a US keyboard.
Clicking on the indicator in the menu bar switches to the correct (UK) input.
Like Ralf, I also only need
Is there a way to disable this feature? I need only ONE keyboard layout.

Title:
Keyboard layout changing
This effect is also present in 14.04. It switches to english layout
randomly. BUT, why could it switch to english, when there is no english
layout present. I deleted the english layout, when I installed the
german layout. (i got the backslash sign, when I pressed + key)
kind regards,
Ralf
