This bug report mixes together two separate issues.

The first issue is that some shortcuts that can be used to switch between layouts, do not work. They do not work due to issues that related to the X.Org, and are described at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4927
A workaround here is to change the shortcut to something else that works.

Then, this report switched to a different issue. When autologin is enabled, GNOME (keyboard settings) are not able to configure the shortcut or any other keyboard-related settings (such as euro, compose, layouts, etc). This is (most probably) due to the autologin feature.
The workaround here is to disable autologin.

Rapolas (reporter), how shall we go about this issue? Which issue do you want this report to cover?
