I can confirm this too. I don't have the option "Allow different sources for each window" enable, but the bug still works. My setup is: - two keyboard layouts: English and Russian - Alt+LShift to change between layouts. - Use the same input source for all windows enabled.
I switch the layout to Russian, then lock the screen via Ctrl+Alt+L. Result: the lock screen keyboard layout is set to Russian instead of the default English layout. An additional commend: the lock screen inherits the keyboard layout from the desktop, but the converse is not true: the layout of the desktop is the same as it was before the screen was locked, independently of whether it has been changed in the lock screen.

Steps to reproduce this bug: 1. In the system Text Entry settings: 1a. add two or more languages to the input sources list, e.g. English (as first and default) and Russian (as second); 1b. Set hotkeys to switch sources (e.g. Ctrl+Shift or CapsLock). 1c. Select "Allow different sources for each window" radio button. 1d. Select "New windows use the default source" radio button. 2. Run any application (e.g. gedit) and switch keyboard to second input language (Russian). 3. Lock the screen (Ctrl+Alt+L) or just wait idle time. 4. See what language set by default for password input in the lock screen. Expected: lock screen uses first input language (English) by default. What happened instead: lock screen uses last active window's language (Russian).
