** Description changed:

  Hello,
  
- I have a problem where keyboard layout change randomly stops actually
- switching the keyboard input layout.
+ I have a problem where keyboard layout change stops actually switching
+ the keyboard input layout.
  
  Ubuntu version: 20.04.1 LTS
  
  Desktop environment: Gnome 3.36.3 (Ubuntu desktop)
+ 
+ Steps to reproduce:
+ 1. Plug an external USB keyboard
+ 2. Log in to your ubuntu-desktop session
+ 3. Change layout => works properly
+ 4. Unplug USB keyboard and plug it again
+ 5. Change keyboard layout => Problem
  
  Expected behaviour:
  Changing keyboard layout through GUI to change keyboard layout from French to 
English.
  
  What happened instead:
  The GUI indicates that the layout changed. However when typing text into any 
window, the layout actually does not change.
  
- I can't find what is causing this problem to happen as restarting the 
computer fixes it temporarily until it happens again.
- It seems to happen after the computer goes into sleep.
+ This problem also happens when the computer goes to sleep as it disconnects 
USB devices.
+ Once the external USB keyboard is disconnected, the only way to get it to 
switch layout is by logging out and back in.
  
  If you could point me out to what logs would be useful and where to find
  them, I could provide you with more information.
  
- Update : 
- Unplugging my external USB keyboard fixes the issue; re-plugging it causes it 
to happen again.
  
- Description: 
+ Note:
  It is worth noting that I am using an external USB keyboard on my laptop. 
Unplugging the keyboard fixes the problem once it happens. However re-plugging 
it causes the problem to instantly happen again.
