Strange Apple keyboard behaviour (Spanish layout)

[Pedro A. Aranda]

I have an Apple Aluminium keyboard with Spanish/Castillian layout connected to my laptop:

lsusb output:

...
Bus 002 Device 006: ID 05ac:0221 Apple, Inc. Aluminum Keyboard (ISO)
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 05ac:1006 Apple, Inc. Hub in Aluminum Keyboard
...

I'm running Focal:

cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=20.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=focal
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 20.04 LTS"

I want to enable the regular Spanish keyboard layout for the laptop's internal keyboard and the Macintosh layout for the Apple Aluminum keyboard.

When I press the key to the left of 'z' which should be '<' and I have the layout, I see the right key being highlighted but I get 'º' on the terminal

Likewise, when I press the key to the left of '1', I see it correctly highlighted but I get a '<' instead of a 'º'

But please note, though, that such an entry in /etc/default/keyboard would switch the keys for your built-in keyboard too.
