like suing xrandr cmdline ... if you use xkbmap you will just fight with e
because it also manages xkb stuff in the xkb settings. i fixed some major
slowness when updating xkb that causes lots of slow round-trips to x and
repeated actions so it will have affected timing for sure and thus something
that may have worked by luck before because it happened to run at time X and e
change stuff at time Y now hae e changing stuff at a different time and thus
overwriting any changes you made behind its back. but it's the classic "if you
have 2 entities trying to control the same thing you will get conflicts and the
solution is to not have 2 things controlling it". this problem is endemic
throughout the x11 world as the xserver allows any xclient anywhere to change
anything from screensaver timeouts, to dpms timeouts, screen resolution and
layout, refresh, keyboard layout, other keymap things etc.
