1. I installed gnome-panel in fresh 13.10 and I can switch layouts with Super+Space and Shift+Super+Space. What is interesting if I login (on boot) to Gnome Flashback session I can use Super+Space and Shift+Super+Space for layout switching. If then I logout and login to Ubuntu (Unity) session I can switch layouts with Alt+Shift (scroll lock indicates layout, but indicator-keyboard in gnome panel is not change). As far I can understand - Alt+Shift combination is created by installer and stored in /etc/default/keyboard (commented lines removed): #... XKBMODEL="pc105" XKBLAYOUT="us,ru" XKBVARIANT="," XKBOPTIONS="grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll" #...
2. I also installed fresh Ubuntu GNOME 13.10 and I unable to set Ctrl+Shift or Alt+Shift for layout switching in it. Alt+Shift works only if it is defined in /etc/default/keyboard (by ubiquity). Super+Space and Shift+Super+Space works normally. 3. @Lockal installing GNOME 3.10 from PPA is not a solution for this bug. The solution is to fix it before release or drop indicator-keyboard away now as not-well-tested alpha stage application. Or, of course, use 12.04.3 LTS. So there are configuration problems between indicator-keyboard, xkbswitch, ibus and so on. And it seems that ubiquity is also related to this bug - it wrote Alt+Shift combination to /etc/config/keyboard , while on first login there is a small notification about Ibus and Super+Space for layout switching.
