Please note that Windows tends to switch keyboard definitions
unexpectedly - if you have multiple keyboards defined (e.g. the US
keyboard both as "US international" and native US). The solution is
remove (deactivate) all unneeded definitions (via the control panel).
Well, maybe not a "solution", but presumably fewer keyboard definitions
woulde minimize the problem, which is simply caused by hitting
Ctrl-Shift (a common enough occurrence), which switches to the next
keyboard. One simple solution for that is to use the language bar key
settings to assign specific Ctrl-Shift combinations, as in:
Ctrl-Shift-1: first keyboard
Ctrl-Shift-2: second keyboard
...
That way you can at least be sure of the keyboard before hitting your
dead-key combinations.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention. So far I have been using
Ctrl+Shift to switch between languages. Using Ctrl+Shift+# to switch to
a particular keyboard is an interesting addition in combination with
using US - International keyboards.
