As I googled out http://osdir.com/ml/ubuntu-bugs/2014-05/msg08453.html
let me also mention that I had „use-system-keyboard” disabled.

And short summary from my side: we have many sources of possible
keyboard settings (~/.dmrc, dconf-editor settings,
/etc/default/keyboard, keyboard settings in Xorg, maybe more).  Those
can be edited by various means (different preferences dialogs, *conf-
editors, gsettigs) and it seems some of those happen to be generated
from some others at not-so-clear (for me) moments by not-so-clear (for
me) apps. While the system is executing, one can impact keyboard via
setxkbmap or similar APIs, by keyboard switching shortcuts/panels and -
it seems to me - by some background processes (IBUS?)

The result is that I have completely no idea where my settings are taken
from, what impacts them and why do they change and when.

The bug as such looks like an effect of some inconsistency between those
various settings.

Debugging it in detail could be hard, but if somebody clearly described
what is the INTENDED priority of all those settings, it could be
possible to examine whether it is respected.
