Bug Description

In Tweaks - Keyboard and Mouse - Additional Layout options, activating any of the possible key combinations in "Switching to another layout" does not work on Jammy beta.
This worked on 21.10.

Both systems I tested on were updated from 21.10 to 22.04 beta.

Hello,

there are similar bugs reported elsewhere, like:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1956916

yet I think that switching languages problem should be related also with gnome-tweaks. This package enabled the user to switch keyboard-layout from the now default super+space to the alt-shift combination. With new nautilus and gtk4 gnome-weather applications (that were checked that are not working under 22.10 and 23.04 development), it is not possible for this to happen any more. In case someone wishes to change layout has to leave the menu where text is entered, change layout and then re-enter that menu in order to type back. In other applications e.g. libreoffice layout change is working as it used to.
