SUMMARY

I recently installed kde via "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop".
Before that I was using gnome3, and I had my keyboard set up with spanish as
the only and selected layout for literally years.

The first time I logged in with Plasma, I realized the keyboard was in US
layout.

So I clicked on the "EN" symbol on the bottom-right of the screen; a selector
unfolder where the two options "US English" and "Spanish" were available, and I
selected Spanish.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Log out and in again in Plasma
2. Type something into some application

OBSERVED RESULT

The keyboard was behaving as US English despite the fact that the indicator
said ES.
I clicked on the indicator and selected ES.

It still behaved as US English.

Then I changed it to US English, and back to Spanish, and finally it started to
apply the Spanish layout.

This is pathetic. I've been trying KDE for a few minutes and I have already
spent more time reporting bugs than using it.

I can't believe it's even more broken than Gnome.


EXPECTED RESULT
