[Bug 1826409] [NEW] [19.04] Input method (keyboard) not respected

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I installed 19.04 in a VM using VirtualBox 6.0.6 from the .iso image
(Live DVD).

I selected "English" as the language and the input method I selected was
"Portuguese (Portugal)" which is my keyboard layout.

I created a password with special characters.

However, when we get to the login screen, the keyboard is automatically
the one from the language installation, so the special characters always
give a wrong password warning.

After I found a way of matching the special characters with the English
keyboard, I get into the desktop and insert a Portuguese input method in
the settings and change it in the top right of the window to "pt".

However, in every boot, in the login screen we still have "en" although
"pt" appears below it if we click, but I have to change on every boot to
"pt" since Ubuntu doesn't remember it.

Basically, this bug report is about the keyboard layout that uses the
installation language and not the keyboard we select during
installation.
