Public bug reported: Introduction: I am currently working with Xubuntu 24.04 and I have a problem with the keyboard layouts. I have a physical English keyboard, but have installed the "Spanish" and "English (UK)" keyboard.
What I expected and what happened: If the keyboard layout priority in xfce4-keyboard-settings is "English (UK)" and then "Spanish", the key that is on the left of Z should produce the "<" and ">" characters if the Spanish keyboard layout is selected. However, the characters "\" and "|" are shown in screen, just as if I still had the English keyboard. The rest of the keys work properly as far as I have tested. Workaround: Changing the layout order so that "Spanish" is the first option and then the "English (UK)" layout seems to work. This fix does not seem to make sense but it works. Other users affected: The user from https://askubuntu.com/questions/1074231/one-key-has-wrong-keyboard-layout had the same problem for the Ubuntu 16.04. I confirm that the bug is still there for Xubuntu 24.04.
