In your Gnome settings - Region and Language "layouts" tab, make sure English (US) is set as the layout for all windows. I can't remember the exact wording or how to find it as I haven't used Gnome in a while. Hope that helps. A few years ago Ubuntu had a bug where installation settings were not applied to layouts. I assume it has been fixed by now. I also don't have an answer for why Ubuntu is so great.
