onboard resets to english layout

[Nino Rode]

If in Ubuntu 11.10 Gnome session only one keyboard layout is set (Slovenian in case of my son), Onboard ignores it and defaults to english layout (it worked good in 10.04 LTS).
A workaround is to set at least two layouts. Then Onboard uses the active one.
No big deal, but it's a nuisance especially when a real handicapped person is using it and has to figure it out...

I can confirm this in Ubuntu 12.04 too. Sometimes the layout changes to german, but most tims I have the english layout. And I can't verfiy until now when it is switching to german

I can confirm this also for the snapshot version. The snapshot starts in german, but changes to english if I type.

If I type with a regular usb keyboard the Onboard layout switches back to german.

Burli, the description sounds similar, but what you're experiencing is most probably this bug:
