The following worked for me,  although trivial, I hope that it works for
others also.

Try either:   Shift + Super + Space    then try typing to see if it has changed 
the layout. 
                       Super + Space                 then try typing to see if 
it has changed the layout.

For me this was the problem and it is very easy to press these
particular keyboard commands on Ubuntu 14.04 if you are using multiple
programs.

Why should this work? Well if you go to Settings - Keyboard - Text Entry - *The 
above commands and what they do shown on the right* will make the above 
self-explanatory. 
Alternatively after clicking *Text Entry* highlight the Keyboard layouts that 
you do not want (on the left hand side) and then click the minus sign below. 

I hope this helps.

Title:
  Keyboard layout changing randomly

Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in unity-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Just upgraded from 12.04 (raring) to 12.10 (saucy) and keyboard layout keeps 
changing from pt_br to what I think is en_us.
  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.
