Bug Description
Tested in Ubuntu 12.04 (fresh install):
Changing the input method using the menu in the top bar of Unity does not work when the following preference is set: "Advanced/Global input method settings/Share the same input method among all applications".
Only the keyboard shortcuts work.
When this option is not set, changing the method using the menu works only with GTK enabled application (e.g. gedit, Firefox, Chrome), but not in Java or KDE based application such as VirtualBox.
Workaround: use keyboard shortcut.
