Bug Description

When trying to login in the lightdm login screen, Bluetooth keyboards do connect properly, but fail to switch to the selected user's keyboard layout. I use Dvorak, and my Bluetooth keyboard is always in QWERTY when I attempt to login to lightdm, even when I've selected my user. I remember the old GDM login screens having an option for selecting keyboard layout, but I never tested logging in with a Bluetooth keyboard in GDM.
