Hi! Yes - the support for Ibus non-xkb layouts via the applet is broken in focal - fixed as you have seen in groovy.
Thus I have backported the patch and SRU'd here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/budgie-desktop/+bug/1902317 Hopefully the SRU team will be kind enough to review soonish. Thanks.
