Package: barrier Version: 2.4.0+dfsg-3
Issue: When typing from server keyboard to client, keyboard layout on client side is reset to en_US on first keystroke instead of keeping the language and layout set. It doesn't make any difference which keyboard language layout on server PC is set up, client will be switched to English always. The keyboard layout switch on system tray is blocked and nailed to English, same goes for the Layout switch hotkey, which won't work as long mouse cursor is on client screen. Only after moving the mouse back to server, the proper keyboard language layout on client can get restored. It doesn't make any difference which language or keyboard layout is set, no language specific keyboard layout besides US English works with barrier on client side. This issue renders barrier unusable for foreign language users. Only English users can use it. Expected behaviour: Keyboard layout of client shouldn't get changed to English layout. It should preserve the client's keyboard layout. It should stay switchable between the layouts set up on the client.
