I seem to have had 2 separate issues with the keyboard.

The first being the text console was using US Keyboard settings rather
than UK.  I think this may be related to console-setup not being able to
be installed.  I installed the Mar 16 2014 daily xubuntu snapshot into
virtual box, and can confirm that console-setup was installed and
keyboard appears to function as expected.

Second issue was incorrect keyboard settings in X11.  Should be UK but
appear to run as US.  I seemed to find 2 seperate workarounds for this.

1)  from terminal run
  sudo apt-get remove ibus
iBus appears to be some kind of new input device manager.  I assume this is not 
yet configured to learn the installed language.

2)  Configure iBus
Right click the iBus / Keyboard indicator in the notification area, and select 
preferences.
Click Input Method tab
Click customise active input methods
Click select an input method drop down, and choose English -> English (UK, 
extgended WinKeys)
Click Add
Close windows
Logout / Login or restart the ibus indicator

Hope this helps

Woody
