I removed the duplicate status. The bugs might be related, but we don't know that. In the other report people have the problem after every reboot. In this bug it happens while being logged in. As the bug occurs randomly, I cannot yet confirm if the workaround from the other bug does it.
If it helps: This problem was introduced with 13.10. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1240198 wrong keyboard layout active after booting into desktop, after upgrade to saucy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1246272 Title: Keyboard layout changing randomly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1246272/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
