I've got the same problem. I don't even have the US keyboard layout installed and yet, upon each login, the layout is set to US. Manually setting it back to the correct one (Finnish in my case) works but after a reboot, it's wrong again. Very annoying indeed.

It seems random so I don't know what trigger this, but sometimes just alt-tabbing is enough to mess with keyboard layout in one of the windows. I already removed the en_us from my keyboard sources, double checked the use of one source for all windows, and even removed accelerators to switch between layouts but none have worked.
