OK, thanks. This seems wrong, "SKIP" is not a valid keyboard layout.

To confirm that this is really the root problem, can you please do

  sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup

to reset the model on a system level?

Ergh, I did a typo there. This was supposed to be "MODEL", not
"LAYOUT", but nevermind. /etc/default/console-setup is the top-level
definitive configuration resource, so the udev rules seem fine.
