You need to create an Autostart entry for the command
lxkeymap --autostart
This should fix this issue.
I am not really sure if this can be called an upstream issue or should be fixed from the lxkeymap maintainer in Lubuntu itself by simply providing a Lxkeymap.desktop file in /etc/xdg/autostart . So I am setting it to Won't fix for upstream for the moment.

Yes, that seems to solve it, but it should happen automatically, even when primarily using Unity. I'm not sure if adding the autostart would conflict with Gnome/Unity sessions if the user chooses another keymap there. Is there any Lubuntu specific autostarts?
Leszek Lesner (leszek-lesner) wrote : | #5 |
I think the *.desktop standard has an
OnlyShowIn=LXDE
Option which should prevent this particulary autostart option being executed somewhere else.

Okay, that is right: http://
The lxkeymap.desktop contained in lxkeymap package does not contain it, but the autostart entry could have it added.

IId did not happen with 13.04, but now after automated update to 14.04 LTS.

Bingo!
I can confirm this bug has returned on my Lubuntu Trusty. Very annoying. Thanks for the --autostart trick, at least it will stop presenting me a US keyboard when logging in.

...No, doesn't work. But I know now what the culprit is.
By default, Lubuntu ships a 'Keyboard Layout Handler' panel, which is *not* identical to lxkeymap and will *constantly* interfere with lxkeymap. So to get the keymap I need, I have to run lxkeymap once to get my settings, since the Keyboard Layout Handler for some reason refuses to save my settings.
Must investigate further...
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
