I have what seems to be the same problem. I configured my keyboard layout to French, and it works both under the console and under a Xubuntu (XFCE) session, but not on the lightdm login screen. This makes it a mess to type in my password.
Really, this bug should be marked as critical, as it's a huge usability roadblock for anyone with a non-US keyboard (and there are millions of us).
