If I can remember correctly, User Login will be able to access thatDesktop session using the "preferred language layout".
Ubuntu manages to accept its login passwords in the same format in which it created them.
On this case, you need to remember switch the layout before shut the system down.
If you can't login in the first place, you can't switch the layout before shutting down.
I did install several systems for users with different languages. They requested a very long 23 mixed characters and complex passwords to access its hard disk drive. Additional login on other languages than US English with 23 mixed characters passwords. Today, I went to one of my customers computer to check it and refresh my thoughts about this issue.The whole system displays another language different from US English except on HDD ( Hard Disk Drive ) to get access to (It shows English). The funny stuff here, It is able to use its NON-US English Keyboard and Non-US English Layout to get access to the HDD by using the very complex long password.The Login Interface is showing on Non-English and again it is able to work with Non-US English Keyboard Layout and the user get into Desktop Environment with preferred language.It includes the KWallet. The only case it needs to switch the keyboard to US English Keyboard Layout is to introduce Root password for administrative purposes. I know it is frustrating. I do ignore how difficult or why has been so difficult to fix it on this distro. Remember, every distro has its own challenges on different phases. There is no distro challenges free. And disregards the distro, I know, its developers have great challenges to deliver an usable experience without big hiccups (sometimes they need to negotiate with themselves to sacrifice features). I would not say it is comfortably to make a workaround. It just a workaround to make it work before full fix is to come. If time is available soon, I would like to help you more. In that case, I would try to buy another Hard Disk Drive and get the Hardware with similar conditions to annotate how I did this to work and make it available for you.
