matches the system layout

When the first keyboard layout matches the system layout the keyboard layout
systray button is missing and switching via shortcut (Meta+Alt+k) does not
work. After modifying the order so that the system layout is not the first
entry switching works as expected.
locatectl
| VC Keymap: us
| X11 Layout: us
| X11 Model: applealu_iso
cat ~/.config/kxkbrc
| [Layout]
| DisplayNames=,,
| LayoutList=us,eu,de
| Model=applealu_iso
| Use=true
| VariantList=mac,,nodeadkeys
After changing the order to
cat ~/.config/kxkbrc
| [Layout]
| DisplayNames=,,
| LayoutList=eu,us,de
| Model=applealu_iso
| Use=true
| VariantList=,mac,nodeadkeys
everything works as expected.

3. add another layout and apply
OBSERVED RESULT
Switching between the the layouts is not possible. no keyboard layout systray
icon and the keyboard shortcut is not working either

keyboard layouts works
