Bug Description

I have several input sources configured on my computer. Accidentally found that I can't switch them by keyboard indicator in the right corner of the panel. When I click it and select, for example 'uk' layout, menu disappears and active layout still the same. But keyboard shortcut Super+Space works just fine.

This behaviour is reproduced only when the option "Switch input sources individually for each window" is active in the Settings - Keyboard - Input Source Switching. If the default option "Use the same source for all windows" is chosen, keyboard indicator works as expected.
