Bug Description

I have two keyboard layouts: english and russian. My password consist of english chars.
New ubuntu layout changer did not work on lock screen, so if i lock screen when russian keyboard layout selected, i can not unlock it.

Workaround: click "switch user" and login to own user from lightdm.
