In my case, adding "setxkbmap" to Gnome session startup solved issue
completely, including keyboard switching and Gnome panel
indicator/switching - I am not aware of any remaining problems. However,
same didn't work in Frantisek's case, hence my comment on "randomness"
of this issue - same solution might or might not work on different
computers.
