Xnest seems to have much more bugs than Xephyr, is less maintained and
less recommended by upstream. If Xephyr works better, I'll suggest you
use it instead on Xnest since this problem might not get fixed soon.

Xnest doesn't support the XKB extension, which I assume is what kde uses
to set the keyboard configuration.  I'm inclined to close this bug,
because it's unlikely to ever be fixed, and Xephyr works fine with XKB.

Cheers,
Julien

Is there another way to set the keyboard layout in Xnest?
