Comment 5 for bug 173721

The annoying thing is that somehow even coding these options into the keyboard layout doesn't work. See bug #138467. I thought there might be a relationship, but the other users presumably didn't hack their layouts like I did.

I have two layouts, one that switches caps/ctrl itself and one that doesn't. After a login the switch isn't active on any of them, and after disabling/enabling it in the layout options tab it is active on both.

(Ideally, I'd prefer to be able to have this work differently on the two layouts, i.e. switched on my hacked layout and 'normal' on the other. It doesn't seem possible, and it wasn't even before this bug.)
