This bug seems still to be present in Xubuntu 21.04
found some kind of workaround:
1) install x11-xkb-utils
2) make desktop launchers for commands for languages you need("setxkbmap us",
"setxkbmap ua", "setxkbmap ru" etc., with short file names like en, ua, ru etc.
3) drag them to panel
3) in the properties the launcher on on the panel --> (tricky, looks like empty
space)--> advanced tab select option "Show label instead of icon"
Have a nice day :)

Title:
cannot switching keyboard layout with xfce4-keyboard-settings

Bug description:
This is on xubuntu 18.04:
With xfce4-keyboard-settings I have loaded the keyboard layouts "English
(US)" and "German".
Both are listed in the "Keybord layout" table.
When I change the order with [key up] or [key down] nothing happens, I still
have the old keyboard layout active.
To switch the layout I have to DELETE the other one!
This was not the case with xubuntu 16.04: just changing the order was
sufficent there.
