Bug Description

### situation:

I have a Japanese Keyboard connected to my PC. Launched the `Boxes` app. I chose `Ubuntu 20.10 x86_64(live)` and installed with `Express Installation: ON`.

I answered `Yes` to the question `Are you sure you want to keep the default keyboard layout (ja)?`. About the time the installation progressed and reached the `keyboard settings`, the installer crashed.

### usage environment:

Host OS: xubuntu 20.04.4 LTS(Japanese environment):

```
$ uname -r
5.15.0-41-generic
```

Boxes version: 42.3-17184268

```
$ flatpak list
:
Boxes org.gnome.Boxes 42.3 stable system
```

### If checked after installation:

```
$ hostnamectl
:
Architecture: x86-64
Hardware Vender: QEMU
Hardware Model: Standard PC_Q35 + ICH9,2009_

$ localectl
System Locale: LANG-ja_JP.UTF-8
VC Keymap: n/a
X11 Layout: jp
X11 Model: pc105
```
