I attach a patch to xorg-server which seems to fix it for me. Side
effects are yet to be discovered :)
Rebuild xorg-server with the following series of commands (might not be
the best way, but that's what I found, I'm not yet familiar with these):
sudo apt-get install build-essential fakeroot dpk
Ubuntu 12.04 is irrelevant here. A lot of changes with keyboard layout
change went into 13.10 (see bug 1218322) which is the source of many
problems. Prior to 13.10 kbd changes were handled differently and it
didn't trigger this problem.

Thanks. Could you please tell us the exact brand/model of your keyboard?
Do you have another keyboard somewhere that you could try?
It sounds strange I know, but apparently on a few computers the numpad
keys start producing different keycodes when numlock is off (namely the
keycodes of the standa

Felipe, Csaba, Cvetan, Diego:
I made some findings upstream at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78012. Looks it's somehow
related to the hardware incorrectly changing the keycode on its own when
numlock is switched on.
Could you please reveal what hardware you have? At this point I wo

I also experience this issue after a clean 14.04 installation. Layout
keeps switching all the time. It's incredibly annoying and infuriating.
My preferred keyboard layout is "US International with dead keys" (or
something like that, my environment is currently set to Spanish).
I need this keyboar

Guys, honestly I can't believe no one's paying attention to this bug.
I mean... it's the most basic input device and it's been working
correctly for decades, and now it can't emit the freaking desired
symbol?!? I find no words to describe how much frustration this bug
keeps causing to me even af
I also experienced this weird NumLock state described by Egmont (5 is a
digit, the rest are cursor keys).
I only use one keyboard layout (Hungarian) and don't want to switch it to any
other, thus I deleted the English one in the System Settings / Text Entry.
But after startup my keyboard layout i
@Egmont: thanks, that's an useful information, it would be useful to
have some confirmation if others get the issue without gnome-settings-
daemon as well

The bug is also observable under IceWM, when manually executing
"setxkbmap us". So it's unrelated to Gnome, is probably a bug in
X.Org/Xkb.

@Sebastien: Are the steps described in the original report, as well as
comment 2 not exact enough to trigger the bug reliably? It is buggy for
me all the time, and so far nobody said he couldn't reproduce.

@Felipe: thanks for asking, some things that would be useful:
- describing exact steps to trigger the issue reliably
- testing if that happens without indicator-keyboard running
- testing if that happens without gnome-settings-daemon running
- debugging the code and sending a patch fixing the issue
Anything we could do to help the developers solved this bug and
hopefully bump it into a higher priority than low? This is freaking
annoying!

@Sebastian:
I firmly disagree with setting "Importance: Low".
Sure you might say that geez if pressing a key did something else, you
can just undo that action, press some magic sequence of keys, and you're
okay. No security problem, no data loss (actually I'm not even sure
about these)...

It seems the bug lies somewhere deeper under, probably in xorg.
Turn on NumLock. Switch layout either using the indicator, or by
executing "setxkbmap us" or something alike. Try the numpad keys: they
work as expected (they insert digits). Press and release any of the
modifier keys. Try the numpad
